Translations: has fallen down, has collapsed, has flowed down
From the root: ΚΑΤΑΡΡΕΩ
Part of Speech: Verb
Explanation: This word is the third person singular perfect active indicative form of the verb καταρρέω (katarreō). It describes an action that was completed in the past and whose effects continue into the present. It means 'to fall down', 'to collapse', or 'to flow down', often implying a complete or decisive descent or ruin. The apostrophe indicates a coronis, which is a mark of elision, meaning the original word was likely καταρρύηκεν, with the double rho (ρρ) becoming single rho (ρ) and the preceding vowel being elided, or it could be a variant spelling.
