Grammatical Analysis
"αρχι"
Form: αρχι
Analysis: The exact form αρχι (without accent/breathing) is not uniquely identifiable from morphology alone. It could represent different lexemes depending on accentuation and context.
Possible analyses: [{'part_of_speech': 'adverb / preverb (prefix)', 'lemma': 'ἄρχι', 'morphology': {'type': 'adverbial element / preverb', 'function': "Used as a preverb or adverbial element meaning roughly 'first, at the beginning' (often in compounds)."}}, {'part_of_speech': 'noun (indeclinable proper name)', 'lemma': 'Ἄρχι', 'morphology': {'type': 'proper name', 'indeclinable': True, 'note': 'Could be a nominative/vocative form of a name if treated as indeclinable in -ι; case/number/gender would then be determined by context.'}}]
Note: If you can provide the word with its accent/breathing (e.g., ἄρχι vs ἀρχί) and/or a short sentence context, the part of speech and morphology can usually be fixed.
