#05180

τύπτω

týptō

Sounds like toop'•to

To "thump", i.e. cudgel or pummel (properly, with a stick or bastinado), but in any case by repeated blows; thus differing from #03817 (παίω / paíō) and #03960 (πατάσσω / patássō), which denote a (usually single) blow with the hand or any instrument, or #04141 (πλήσσω / plḗssō) with the fist (or a hammer), or #04474 (ῥαπίζω / rhapízō) with the palm; as well as from #05177 (τυγχάνω / tynchánō), an accidental collision); by implication, to punish; figuratively, to offend (the conscience).

Derived a primary verb (in a strengthened form).
