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

The word you are looking for is:

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.

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

Why has my ex moved on so fast after years of being together with me?

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

a couple of points:

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

PC modding repository Nexus Mods has a new owner - The Verge

The word has remained the same into Modern Greek

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

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

Why do companies cull employees during financial downturns without saying so?

αλὴθεια / Alithea.

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