I have a debate with one person from Ukraine, who identify himself as a "greek", and after I posted in one russian group about Mediterraneans, a post about Constantius Chlorus, the father of Constantine the Great, he wrote what word Chlorus ( Χλωρός) what today means green, but not pale, as how this word was interpreted by greeks and byzantine historians, has nothing to do with the word pale, and all internet sources about this are fake. I started to explain to this idiot, what in ancient greek language this word maybe had many meanings, but he pretend to be a true greek expert, that all the historical sources are fake, and only he one knows the true history. Can greek users from this forum help me on this question?
This is from english wikipedia:
This is from greek wikipedia:Constantius I (Latin: Marcus Flavius Valerius Constantius Herculius Augustus; 31 March c. 250 – 25 July 306), commonly known as Constantius Chlorus (Greek: Κωνστάντιος Χλωρός, Kōnstantios Khlōrós, literally "Constantius the Pale"), was Roman co-emperor from 293 to 306. He was the father of Constantine the Great and founder of the Constantinian dynasty.
This I found on greek wikipedia:Ο Φλάβιος Βαλέριος Κωνστάντιος ή Κωνστάντιος Α΄ (Gaius Flavius Valerius Constantius, 31 Μαρτίου 250 - 25 Ιουλίου 306) ήταν Ρωμαίος αυτοκράτορας από το 293 έως το 306, κυρίως γνωστός ως Κωνστάντιος Χλωρός χάρη στους βυζαντινούς ιστορικούς που του έδωσαν το προσωνύμιο «Χλωρός» (Chlorus) δηλαδή «Ο Χλωμός», λόγω του χλωμού του προσώπου. Ήταν ο πατέρας του Μεγάλου Κωνσταντίνου και ιδρυτής της Δυναστείας του Κωνσταντίνου.
