What is the word for truth and its meaning in Koine Greek?

The word you are looking for is:

as a result Alitheia, the Goddess of Truth, was always depicted as a naked, unassuming and plain looking woman. The Latin equivalent was nuda Veritas. Truth has nothing to hide and didn’t need all the adornments of the other gods.

The root verb is λανθάνω/lanthano=to escape notice/to make one forget/to lay hidden

Are the seasons in Ireland different from those in Scotland, England, and Wales? Or are they just milder versions of each other?

a couple of points:

The word has remained the same into Modern Greek

The Greek word for thief/robber/pirate is ληστής/listis which is derived from λανθάνω as well

Can they start feeding only one meal to prisoners on death row or those doing a life sentence? Because only then will it be real punishment. If they want extra food they can work or pay from their own pocket.

αλὴθεια / Alithea.

Nuda Veritas is the derivation of the term “Naked Truth”.

There is absolutely no relation to λίθος/lithos=stone. Notice the η vs ι.

What is the best reply if your boyfriend asks you,"why do you love me?"

A similarly derived word is ληθαργία/lethargia=toiling under forgetfulness/stupor….lethargy.

the word is composed of the privative prefix α- and λήθη/lethe which means “forgetfulness/stupor”. So the αλήθεια means “without fault/stupor/hiding”
