Καιρός

"Καιρός" (Kairós) is a Greek term often translated as "the right or opportune moment." It signifies a qualitative aspect of time, focusing on the idea of an ideal moment for action rather than the quantitative measure of time (chronos). In philosophical and rhetorical contexts, Kairós refers to the opportune moment to make arguments or take decisive actions, emphasizing that timing can significantly influence the outcome of events. The concept of Kairós is crucial in various fields, including theology, literature, and social contexts, where recognizing and seizing the right moment can lead to successful or transformative results.
