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

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.

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

The word you are looking for is:

This is a real question: Why do a lot of men/boys hate (yes, hate) women that voice their criteria in choosing a partner? Even when the criteria is sane and responsible. Besides it being, sadly, an effective mating strategy, why does it exist?

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

The word has remained the same into Modern Greek

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

Does a narcissist ever get their comeuppance/karma for the vile things they've done? Such as cheating, smear campaign, etc.

a couple of points:

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

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

αλὴθεια / Alithea.

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