From LSJ

Οὐ γὰρ ἀργίας ὤνιονὑγίεια καὶ ἀπραξίας, ἅ γε δὴ μέγιστα κακῶν ταῖς νόσοις πρόσεστι, καὶ οὐδὲν διαφέρει τοῦ τὰ ὄμματα τῷ μὴ διαβλέπειν καὶ τὴν φωνὴν τῷ μὴ φθέγγεσθαι φυλάττοντος ὁ τὴν ὑγίειαν ἀχρηστίᾳ καὶ ἡσυχίᾳ σῴζειν οἰόμενος → For health is not to be purchased by idleness and inactivity, which are the greatest evils attendant on sickness, and the man who thinks to conserve his health by uselessness and ease does not differ from him who guards his eyes by not seeing, and his voice by not speaking

English (LSJ)

ἡ,

   A earnest expectation, Ep.Rom.8.19, Ep.Phil.1.20.

German (Pape)

[Seite 305] ἡ, sehnliche Erwartung, N. T.

Greek (Liddell-Scott)

ἀποκᾰρᾱδοκία: ἡ, ἔνθερμος προσδοκία, («προσδοκία, ἀπεκδοχὴ» καθ’ Ἡσύχ.), Ἐπιστ. π. Ρωμ. η΄, 19, πρὸς Φιλ. α΄, 20.

French (Bailly abrégé)

ας (ἡ) :
attente impatiente.
Étymologie: ἀποκαραδοκέω.

Spanish (DGE)

-ας, ἡ
espera c. gen. subjet. τῆς κτίσεως Ep.Rom.8.19, cf. Hsch.
abs. expectación, Ep.Phil.1.20, cf. Et.Gud.171.14.

English (Strong)

from a comparative of ἀπό and a compound of kara (the head) and δοκέω (in the sense of watching); intense anticipation: earnest expectation.

English (Thayer)

ἀποκαραδοκιας, ἡ (from ἀποκαραδόκειν, and this from ἀπό, κάρα, the head, and δοκεῖν in the Ionic dialect, to watch; hence, καραδόκειν (Herodotus 7. 163,168; Xenophon, mem. 3,5, 6; Euripides, others) to watch with head erect or outstretched, to direct attention to anything, to wait for in suspense; ἀποκαραδόκειν (Polybius 16,2, 8; 18,31, 4; 22,19, 3; (Plutarch, parall., p. 310,43, vol. vii., p. 235, Reiske edition); Josephus, b. j. 3,7, 26, and in Aq. for הִתהולֵל), anxiously (?) to look forth from one's post. But the prefix ἀπό refers also to time (like the German ab in abwarten (cf. English wait it out)), so that it signifies constancy in expecting; hence, the noun, found in Paul alone and but twice, denotes), anxious (?) and persistent expectation: Lightfoot on Philippians , the passage cited).

Greek Monolingual

ἀποκαραδοκία, η (AM)
εναγώνια προσδοκία.
