A similarly derived word is ληθαργία/lethargia=toiling under forgetfulness/stupor….lethargy.
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 has remained the same into Modern Greek
Washington governor activates National Guard in search for accused killer, Travis Decker - KATU
αλὴθεια / Alithea.
Nuda Veritas is the derivation of the term “Naked Truth”.
The word you are looking for is:
How do I run away? I'm 15 and live in Oklahoma.
The Greek word for thief/robber/pirate is ληστής/listis which is derived from λανθάνω as well
a couple of points:
The root verb is λανθάνω/lanthano=to escape notice/to make one forget/to lay hidden
Neurosteroids identified as potential therapy for treatment-resistant depression - Medical Xpress
the word is composed of the privative prefix α- and λήθη/lethe which means “forgetfulness/stupor”. So the αλήθεια means “without fault/stupor/hiding”
There is absolutely no relation to λίθος/lithos=stone. Notice the η vs ι.
