MLV/Definition: Salamis*
(Sal-a-mis, Acts 13:5. A seaport on the east end of the island of Cyprus. It was situated some three miles to the North of the medieval and modern Famagusta. It lay near the river Pediaeus, at the eastern extremity of the great plain of the Mesorea, which runs far into the interior of the island toward Nicosia (Lefkosia), the present capital. It possessed a good harbor and was the most populous and flourishing town of Cyprus in the Hellenic and Roman periods, carrying on a vigorous trade with the ports of Cilicia and Syria. Its population was mixed, consisting of Greek and Phoenician elements. The former, however, gave its tone and color to the city, and the chief cult and temple were those of Salaminian Zeus.

Every English word above has a symbol next to it. The symbol shows how that English word matches the Greek word it comes from.
* — This English word is used the same way every time this Greek word appears. One Greek word, one English word, always.
^ — This English word is also used for other Greek words built from the same root (related "family" words).
^^ — This English word is shared by two or more different Greek words that are synonyms (not just related family words).
~ — This English word is not uniform. Either it's a small helper word (like "be" or "have" or "ultimately"), or English simply doesn't have enough separate words to match the Greek exactly.
