Ō
The Greek interjection 'Ω' functions as a vocative particle, used to address, call attention to, or signal direct speech to a person, group, or entity. It does not carry lexical meaning on its own, but serves as an expressive exclamatory particle introducing direct address, often conveying a sense of emotion or heightened emphasis, such as urgency, reverence, affection, surprise, or lament. The semantic range is limited to its use in direct address, typically at the beginning of a vocative phrase.
