How do you spell the greek word for power?

The Greek word for power depends on the *kind* of power you mean. There isn't one single perfect translation. Here are a few options with slightly different nuances:

* δύναμις (dýnamis): This is probably the closest general equivalent, often referring to ability, capacity, potential, or inherent power. It's the root of the English word "dynamic."

* κράτος (krátōs): This signifies political power, dominion, or rule. It's related to words like "democracy" and "aristocracy."

* ἰσχύς (ischýs): This emphasizes strength and physical power.

The best choice depends on the context.
