Part of Speech: Preposition, Adverb
Explanation: This word is almost certainly a misspelling or variant of the Koine Greek word ΠΕΡΙ (peri). It is a versatile preposition that can take different cases (genitive, accusative) to convey various meanings. When used with the genitive case, it typically means 'about' or 'concerning' something, or 'on behalf of' someone. With the accusative case, it often indicates 'around' a place, 'about' a time, or 'with' respect to something. It can also function as an adverb meaning 'around' or 'all around'.
Inflection: Does not inflect (as a preposition/adverb), but governs the Genitive or Accusative case of the noun it modifies.
