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

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

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

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

Why cant I sleep on my side after getting my covid vaccine? I just got the shot and I’ve been overstimulated from not being able to sleep, my arm is very sore and it hurts so much to move and I just want to sleep but it hurts if I lay on either side

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

αλὴθεια / Alithea.

The word has remained the same into Modern Greek

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.

a couple of points:

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

Is anal sex allowed in Islam? It's not written anywhere in the Quran whether it's forbidden or not.

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