Merkitys

See definition for αστειος 791

See definition for ωραιος 5611

See definition for καλος 2570

αστειος is properly one living in a city, urban. It soon acquires

the meaning urbane, polite, elegant. Then it obtains to a limited

extent the meaning beautiful, although never in the highest degree.

ωραιος, from ωρα, hour, period, means properly timely.

From that comes the idea of being beautiful, since nearly everything

is beautiful in its hour of fullest perfection.

καλος is a much higher word. It means beautiful, physically or

morally. It is, however, distinctly the beauty which comes from

harmony, the beauty which arises from a symmetrical adjustment in

right proportion, in other words, from the harmonious completeness of

the object concerned.
