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

a couple of points:

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

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.

What can I say to a scammer who thinks he loves me, but I don't want to be scammed?

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

The word you are looking for is:

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

Why do Democrats keep calling Patriots/President Trump supporters "sore losers"? Do they purposefully ignore the massive fraud that took place, or genuinely think that there was zero fraud?

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

αλὴθεια / Alithea.

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

What are "demonic attacks" and how can one tell when they're happening to them, or someone else? How would one go about dealing with it?

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 word has remained the same into Modern Greek
