and yet indeed
| Morphological Notes | Coordinating conjunction; emphatic concessive particle formed from καί + τοι + enclitic γέ. |
| Rendering Rationale | This rendering preserves the compounded force of καί (and/even), τοι (indeed/surely), and the emphatic γέ, expressing strong concessive contrast. As a coordinating conjunction, it introduces a statement that stands in emphatic contrast to expectation. |
