γυμνός
gymnós
naked
Having no covering or clothing on the body; being unclothed. In various contexts, γυμνός describes a person who is completely without clothing, partially clad, or inadequately dressed. By extension, it can also refer metaphorically to vulnerability, lack of means, exposure, or defenselessness. The literal sense of physical nakedness predominates, though contexts may also imply lack of proper outer garments or impoverished condition.
