English Translation
The company cancelled the project.
The Greek word “ακύρωσε” (akýrose) is derived from the verb “ακυρώνω” (akyróno), which means “to cancel” or “to annul.” The root of this verb comes from the prefix “α-” (a-), which is a negation prefix meaning “not” or “without,” and the noun “κύρος” (kýros), which means “authority” or “validity.”
Thus, “ακύρωσε” essentially conveys the idea of rendering something without authority or validity, effectively canceling or annulling it. The construction reflects a common pattern in Greek where prefixes modify the meaning of root words to create new verbs.
