TAUTĒNANTIOCHOS, tautēnantiochos
Sounds Like: TAW-teen AN-tee-O-khos
Translations: this Antiochus, that Antiochus
From the root: ΟΥ͂ΤΟΣ, ἈΝΤΙΟΧΟΣ
Part of Speech: Compound Word (Demonstrative Pronoun, Proper Noun)
Explanation: This is a compound word formed by the demonstrative pronoun "ΤΑΥΤΗΝ" (tauten) and the proper noun "ἈΝΤΙΟΧΟΣ" (Antiochos). "ΤΑΥΤΗΝ" is the accusative singular feminine form of the demonstrative pronoun meaning "this" or "that." "ἈΝΤΙΟΧΟΣ" is a masculine proper noun, a common name for kings and rulers in the Hellenistic period. When combined, it refers to a specific individual named Antiochus, with the demonstrative pronoun emphasizing "this" or "that" particular Antiochus. The feminine form of the pronoun "ΤΑΥΤΗΝ" is unusual when directly preceding a masculine name like "ἈΝΤΙΟΧΟΣ" unless it refers to a feminine noun that "Antiochus" is somehow associated with or describing, or if it's a grammatical error or a very specific, less common construction. However, in Koine Greek, it's more common to see the masculine form of the demonstrative pronoun (e.g., ΤΟΥ͂ΤΟΝ) with a masculine name. Given the context of the example, it's likely referring to a specific Antiochus, possibly with a grammatical nuance or an implied feminine noun that "Antiochus" is related to, or it could be a scribal error.
Inflection: ΤΑΥΤΗΝ: Singular, Accusative, Feminine. ἈΝΤΙΟΧΟΣ: Singular, Nominative or Accusative (when used as a direct object, though here it appears to be the subject or in apposition to a subject). The combination is unusual due to the gender mismatch.
