What does the word 'eis' mean?

Answer 1

"Eis" is a form of the Latin personal and demonstrative pronoun.


The nominative forms are:

Is, Ea, Id (He, She, It)

and the Plural are:

Ei (Ii*), Eae, Ea (They (men), They (women), They (Things))

(*Ii is sometimes used instead of Ei in the plural masculine.)

"Eis" is either plural Dative, or Plural Ablative, and hence can mean many things:

By Them.
From Them.
With Them.
To Them.
or
From Them.

This particular form can mean many things since it is the same in every gender and it is used in multiple cases. Proper translation relies on surrounding context.
