"παι"
Note: The form «παι» as written is not a standard inflected Ancient Greek word-form in isolation. It most commonly represents (1) a truncated/vocative-like address «παι(δ)» used in dialogue (from παῖς, παιδός), with final δ elided (παι(δ)), or (2) a non-standard/incorrect spelling requiring more context (e.g., punctuation or following word) to determine function.
