ΟΥΔʼ, ουδʼ
OUDʼ, oudʼ
Sounds Like: OO-deh
Translations: and not, neither, nor, not even, not
From the root: ΟΥΔΕ
Part of Speech: Conjunction, Adverb
Explanation: This word is a compound of the conjunction 'οὐ' (not) and the enclitic particle 'δέ' (but, and). The apostrophe indicates an elision, meaning the final vowel of 'οὐδέ' has been dropped before a word starting with a vowel. It functions to negate a preceding statement or to introduce an additional negative element, often translated as 'and not', 'neither', or 'nor'. It can also emphasize a negation, meaning 'not even'.
Inflection: Does not inflect (particle/conjunction), but the final vowel is elided before a word beginning with a vowel.
