A similarly derived word is ληθαργία/lethargia=toiling under forgetfulness/stupor….lethargy.
as a result Alitheia, the Goddess of Truth, was always depicted as a naked, unassuming and plain looking woman. The Latin equivalent was nuda Veritas. Truth has nothing to hide and didn’t need all the adornments of the other gods.
The word you are looking for is:
Why is my crush beautiful to me but not to others?
There is absolutely no relation to λίθος/lithos=stone. Notice the η vs ι.
a couple of points:
The word has remained the same into Modern Greek
What's the point of gender reassignment surgery which doesn't change a person's chromosomes?
the word is composed of the privative prefix α- and λήθη/lethe which means “forgetfulness/stupor”. So the αλήθεια means “without fault/stupor/hiding”
αλὴθεια / Alithea.
Nuda Veritas is the derivation of the term “Naked Truth”.
What do you think is the most powerful line in the song "Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien" by Édith Piaf?
The Greek word for thief/robber/pirate is ληστής/listis which is derived from λανθάνω as well
The root verb is λανθάνω/lanthano=to escape notice/to make one forget/to lay hidden
