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

The word you are looking for is:
the word is composed of the privative prefix α- and λήθη/lethe which means “forgetfulness/stupor”. So the αλήθεια means “without fault/stupor/hiding”
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.
Why do liberals refuse to define what a woman is and what does that mean for the future of feminism?
Nuda Veritas is the derivation of the term “Naked Truth”.
αλὴθεια / Alithea.
a couple of points:
Why did McLaren hope that the Ferrari pair would pit twice during the Italian Grand Prix?
The root verb is λανθάνω/lanthano=to escape notice/to make one forget/to lay hidden
The Greek word for thief/robber/pirate is ληστής/listis which is derived from λανθάνω as well
A similarly derived word is ληθαργία/lethargia=toiling under forgetfulness/stupor….lethargy.
Do older men realize that younger women usually do not prefer them?
There is absolutely no relation to λίθος/lithos=stone. Notice the η vs ι.
The word has remained the same into Modern Greek
