Near synonyms 1 word
ἀναβαίνω anabaínō · G305 · to come up, to go up, to ascend
Both verbs express the same core sense of moving or coming up. The rarer of the two is used almost exclusively in this literal sense of ascent, while ἀναβαίνω has a much broader range, extending also to embarking on a ship, plants growing, and mental processes arising. The shared literal sense of ascent constitutes genuine convergence, with ἀναβαίνω simply attested far more frequently and over a wider range of extended senses.
