Etymology: The root word ἘΓΚΡΑΤΕΎΟΜΑΙ (enkrateuomai) is derived from ἘΓΚΡΑΤΗΣ (enkratēs), meaning 'self-controlled' or 'master of oneself', which in turn comes from the preposition ἘΝ (en, 'in') and ΚΡΑΤΟΣ (kratos, 'strength', 'power'). Thus, it literally means 'to be strong in oneself' or 'to have power over oneself'.
