"ηλον"
Verb type: standard (-ω) verb
Lexical form suggestion: ἥλω (from αἱρέω), alternatively ἧλον (aorist of ἵημι) depending on accent/breathing
Tense: aorist
Voice: active
Mood: indicative
Person: 1st
Number: singular
Note: The exact unaccented form «ηλον» is ambiguous in isolation; with the common accented form «ἧλον» it is parsed as 1st sg aorist active indicative of ἵημι (a -μι verb), while «ἥλων/ἥλον» can also relate to aorist forms of αἱρέω. Without accents/breathings the safest morphological reading is aorist active indicative 1st sg, but the underlying lemma and whether it is a -μι verb cannot be determined with certainty from «ηλον» alone.
