Name of God’s Son

ΣΗΚΟΥ, σηκου

SĒKOU, sēkou

Sounds Like: ah-KOO-oh

Translations: hear, listen, obey, give ear, understand

From the root: ΑΚΟΥΩ

Part of Speech: Verb

Explanation: The word "ΣΗΚΟΥ" appears to be a misspelling or a truncated form of a verb related to hearing or listening, most likely from the root "ΑΚΟΥΩ" (akouo) or the compound verb "ΕἸΣΑΚΟΥΩ" (eisakouo). The examples provided show forms like "ΕἸΣΗΚΟΥΣΕΝ", which means "he/she/it heard" or "listened to". If it were a valid form, it would generally describe the act of perceiving sound or paying attention to what is said, often implying obedience or understanding. It could be used in contexts like "he heard the voice" or "they listened to the command."

Inflection: It is not a standard inflected form in Koine Greek. It is likely a misspelling or a partial word.
