In one Syriac (approx. end of the 7th c.) manuscript I am currently working with, occur three words written in Greek (by a hand of the same time) on a flyleaf. I will appreciate deeply any suggestion about their meaning:
αθεδελατων
τομερεμελατων
τελεδαργων

αθεδελατων

mean nothing in Greek
These are not true Greek words of any period but rather appear to be Greek transliterations of Syriac (Aramaic) words.
Note from asker:
| You are right, Joseph, those words are not Greek. Neither they are Syriac or Aramaic (I know myself Syriac and I have enquired in a special Aramaic group). |
Discussion
Could it be a transcription of Syriac into Greek?
Or an adaptation of Syriac family names into Greek?
