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

αλὴθεια / Alithea.

a couple of points:

The word you are looking for is:

Is there a musician who has publicly stated that they do not want their music played by the Trump campaign or at a Trump rally? If so, who and why?

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.

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

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

Are there any queer Space Marine Legion in Warhammer 30k or 40k?

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

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

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

Why is blood sugar ranging from 70-180 in a day and checked through a glucometer?

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

The word has remained the same into Modern Greek
