Sounds like: EH-mees

Translations: unknown

Notes: It's not clear what this word means. It could be garbled or badly misspelled. In Koine Greek, the letter 'Η' (eta) and 'Ι' (iota) were often pronounced similarly, and 'Σ' (sigma) could be confused with 'Ξ' (xi) or 'Ζ' (zeta) in some contexts, or it could be a misreading of another letter. There is no readily identifiable Koine Greek word 'ΕΜΗΣ'. It is possible it is a typo for a word like 'ΕΜΗΣ' (emēs), which is not a standard word, or 'ΕΜΗΣ' (emēs) which could be a form of 'ΕΜΟΣ' (emos) meaning 'my' or 'mine', but the spelling 'ΕΜΗΣ' is not a standard inflection.
