Grammatical Analysis

"met'ou"

Preposition: μετά (contracted to μετ’ before vowel)

Prep function: with, after (with genitive or accusative; here the precise case is not visible)

Conjunction/particle: οὔ (contraction οὐ after vowel elision; negating particle)

Particle function: negation (not)

Special note: μετ’ οὐ is a combination of the preposition μετ’ (followed by elision before οὐ) and the negating particle οὐ. This is not a standalone verbal, nominal, adjectival, or pronominal form. Rather, it functions as a prepositional phrase or a contracted preposition + negation.
