"ψέμα" meaning in Greek

See ψέμα in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈpse.ma/
Etymology: Inherited from Byzantine Greek ψέμα (pséma), from Hellenistic Koine Greek ψεῦμα (pseûma) with simplification [vm] > [m]. The expected double [mm] (ψέμμα) has not been written in mediaeval times because the simplification happened after the period when double consonants were pronounced -as in ῥεῦμα (rheûma) > ρέμα (réma). From Ancient Greek ψεῦσμα (pseûsma), a derivative of Ancient Greek ψεύδω (pseúdō) with suffix -μα (-ma). Cognate with Mariupol Greek псе́мма (psjémma).
