άντρας

Lemma: άντρας

Translation: man; men (noun)

Etymology: From Ancient Greek ἀνδρός (andros), the genitive of ἀνήρ (anēr, 'man'). This root appears in many English words like 'android' (man-like robot), 'androgen' (male hormone), and 'polyandry' (practice of having multiple husbands). The modern Greek form evolved through a process of simplification, with 'δ' becoming 't' and vowel changes.
