ακόμα
Lemma: ακόμα
Translation: still; yet; even now (adverb)
Etymology: From Ancient Greek ἀκμήν (akmḗn), accusative of ἀκμή (akmḗ, 'point, edge, peak, prime'). The semantic shift from 'at the peak' to 'still' reflects how something at its peak continues to exist in that state. The English word 'acme' (highest point) shares the same Ancient Greek root.
