ΦΛΩΡΟΣΚΡΑΤΗΣΗ, φλωροσκρατηση

PHLŌROSKRATĒSĒ, phlōroskratēsē

Sounds Like: FLO-ros-KRA-tay-sis

Translations: Florus's seizure, Florus's holding, Florus's control

From the root: ΦΛΩΡΟΣΚΡΑΤΗΣΗ

Part of Speech: Noun

Explanation: This word appears to be a compound noun, likely a neologism or a unique formation, combining the proper name "Φλῶρος" (Phloros), referring to Gessius Florus, a Roman procurator of Judea, and "κράτησις" (kratēsis), meaning 'holding', 'possession', 'seizure', or 'control'. Therefore, it refers to the act of Florus seizing or taking control of something. It is not a standard word found in Koine Greek lexicons.

Inflection: Singular, Nominative

Unknown: Yes
