Exegesis
Within the quotation, the nominative he mna sou {ἡ μνᾶ σου | hē mnâ sou} “Your mina” precedes the vocative kyrie {κύριε | kúrie} “Master,” then the aorist verb epoiēsen {ἐποίησεν | epoíēsen} with the accusative plural mnas {μνᾶς | mnâs} “five minas” as result, emphasizing the successful stewardship manifested in the multiplied sum.
Root and etymology
mn-mu–nu
