STRONGS G188:
ἀκμή, -ῆς, ἡ, (cf. ἀκή [on the accent cf. Chandler § 116; but the word is 'a mere figment of the grammarians,' Pape (yet cf. Liddell and Scott) under the word], αἰχμή, Latin acies, acuo); among the Greeks
a. properly, a point, to prick with (cf. [the classic] αἰχμή).
b. extremity, climax, acme, highest degree.
c. the present point of time.
Hence, accusative [Winers Grammar, 230 (216), 464 (432f); Buttmann, 153 (134)] ἀκμήν with adverbial force, equivalent to ἔπί, even now, even yet: Matthew 15:16. (Theocritus, id. 4, 60; Polybius 4, 36, 8; Strat. epigr. 3, p. 101, Lipsius edition; Strabo l. i. [c. 3 prol.], p. 56; Plutarch, de glor. Athen. 2, 85, others) Cf. Lob. ad Phryn., p. 123.
