παλαιά
palaiós
having existed for a long time, long-standing; in reference to objects or things, 'old' or 'ancient' as opposed to recent or new; in certain contexts, may designate something obsolete, worn out, or outmoded due to age. Contextual nuances may signal age in a purely temporal sense (long ago), or connote a negative value judgment (worn out, outdated) depending on usage.
