POS, pos

Sounds Like: POS

Translations: how much, how great, how many, how far, how long, what kind of, what sort of, what, who, which

From the root: ΠΟΣ

Part of Speech: Adverb, Adjective, Interrogative Pronoun

Explanation: This word is highly versatile and can function as an adverb, an adjective, or an interrogative pronoun, depending on context. As an adverb, it asks about quantity, degree, or extent (how much, how great). As an adjective, it asks about the nature or quantity of something (what kind of, how many). As an interrogative pronoun, it can ask 'who' or 'what' in certain contexts, particularly when referring to quantity or quality. The meaning is determined by the diacritics and context in the original Greek, which are absent in the normalized form.

Inflection: Does not inflect as an adverb. As an adjective/pronoun, it inflects for gender, number, and case (e.g., masculine, feminine, neuter; singular, plural; nominative, genitive, dative, accusative). Without diacritics, it could represent various inflected forms of 'πόσος' (how much/many) or 'ποῦ' (where) or 'πῶς' (how).
