Root / Etymology

From the Greek root σῦν-, deriving from Proto-Indo-European *ḱm̥-tó ('with'). Semantically related to Latin 'cum' and Sanskrit 'sam-.'

Historical & Contextual Notes

σύν is one of the major prepositions in Greek indicating accompaniment or association. In classical Greek, it primarily marks togetherness or joint participation, always governing the dative case. During the Koine period (including the Septuagint and New Testament), its usage remains stable, contrasted with μετά which can indicate association after movement, and παρά which often suggests proximity or a relationship of positioning. In New Testament usage, σύν typically denotes close association, often in the context of partnership, joint action, or shared experiences (e.g., "with the disciples"). In composition, σύν- (as prefix) intensifies the sense of togetherness or totality; e.g., συνεργός ('co-worker'), συμφωνία ('agreement'). English translations with 'with' or 'together with' capture most contexts, though the Greek often implies a stronger or more intrinsic association than English might communicate. σύν rarely carries merely spatial connotation; rather, it emphasizes union or joint involvement, less superficial than μετά.

Original Strong's Gloss (1890)

a primary preposition denoting union; with or together (but much closer than μετά or παρά), i.e. by association, companionship, process, resemblance, possession, instrumentality, addition, etc.:--beside, with. In composition it has similar applications, including completeness.
