What is the word for truth and its meaning in Koine Greek?

The root verb is λανθάνω/lanthano=to escape notice/to make one forget/to lay hidden

A similarly derived word is ληθαργία/lethargia=toiling under forgetfulness/stupor….lethargy.

a couple of points:

What could be the result if I block a covert narc back after he said blocks were going back up, maybe we try this again?

Nuda Veritas is the derivation of the term “Naked Truth”.

The Greek word for thief/robber/pirate is ληστής/listis which is derived from λανθάνω as well

the word is composed of the privative prefix α- and λήθη/lethe which means “forgetfulness/stupor”. So the αλήθεια means “without fault/stupor/hiding”

Is Matt Gaetz qualified to be Attorney General of the United States?

The word has remained the same into Modern Greek

αλὴθεια / Alithea.

There is absolutely no relation to λίθος/lithos=stone. Notice the η vs ι.

How do so-called Religious/Christian people really think homosexuality is even a sin? That would be nonsense. In fact, LGBT people need love instead of contempt/hatred. The word Homosexual didn't appear until the 1850s.

as a result Alitheia, the Goddess of Truth, was always depicted as a naked, unassuming and plain looking woman. The Latin equivalent was nuda Veritas. Truth has nothing to hide and didn’t need all the adornments of the other gods.
