Is it a noun also

[edit]

@ObsequiousNewt: I found one source:

  • Lua error in Module:quote at line 2951: Parameter 1 is required.

Some one who knows Greek could add the following, if it is in fact correct to use it as a noun.

===Noun===
{{grc-noun|θεόσοφου|m|second}}

#A [[theosopher]].

And add correct declension and inflection templates. —BoBoMisiu (talk) 17:15, 11 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

The word does not in fact appear to occur in Timaeus at all, and the lack of a visible header for that table leads me to suspect that the word is not used in a noun sense, and, if it is, it is substantive rather than a true noun. Oh, and don't remove length marks, please; they're supposed to be there. ObsequiousNewt (ἔβαζα|ἐτλέλεσα) 13:49, 13 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
All substantives are nouns; you mean nominal adjective? Lysdexia (talk) 02:52, 13 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
