τίς

tís · Greek · Strong's G5101 · 532 occurrences

The KJV renders 30 different Hebrew and Greek words as “thing”

What it means

an interrogative pronoun, who, which or what (in direct or indirect questions)

probably emphatic of G5100 (τὶς);

How the KJV renders it

every man, how, thing, what manner, whereby, fore, unto, with, withal, whether, which, whom, why

Where that flattens a distinction

The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.
