"koma"

Note: The form given is Latin transliteration ('koma'), not an exact Ancient Greek orthographic form. Multiple distinct Greek forms can correspond to 'koma' depending on how κ/ο/ω/α and accents are intended. Without the original Greek spelling (e.g., κόμα, κῶμα, κóμα, etc.) and context, a single secure morphological analysis cannot be given.

Most likely if κῶμα: {'part_of_speech': 'noun', 'case': 'nominative/accusative/vocative', 'number': 'singular', 'gender': 'neuter', 'declension': '3rd declension (neuter in -μα, genitive -ματος)', 'lemma': 'κῶμα'}

Possible if κόμα: {'part_of_speech': 'adverb (or enclitic particle-like form in some dialectal/poetic usage)', 'function': "temporal/quantifying adverb meaning 'still, yet' (depending on intended accent and dialect)", 'note': 'This analysis is less secure; please provide the exact Greek spelling with accentuation.'}
