Part of Speech: Conjunction, Adverb
Explanation: This word is a compound of the conjunction "καί" (and, even) and the particle "τοι" (indeed, certainly). It functions as a strong adversative conjunction or adverb, meaning 'and yet' or 'nevertheless', often introducing a statement that contrasts with what has just been said. It can also be interpreted as 'and indeed' or 'and certainly', emphasizing a previous statement. In some contexts, particularly when followed by a dative plural, it can be understood as 'and to them' or 'and for them', acting as a combination of 'and' and the dative plural of the demonstrative pronoun 'οὗτος' (these/those) or the definite article 'ὁ' (the). Given the context, it most commonly functions as an adversative conjunction.
Inflection: Does not inflect (as a conjunction/adverb). If interpreted as 'and to them/for them', it would be Dative, Plural, All genders.
