Can you amend these few 'Latin' words?

[Searcher]

Ophites - from Greek ὄφις ophis "snake". Also a name of the gnostic sect.
I looked up the Latin dictionary and found that the word Ophitae - the name of a Gnostic sect, has two declined forms: ophitis and ophitas, which may well be transcribed as opchedy EVA. In Greek it could be Οφιτες from Οφιται.
The question is: how can we distinguish between Greek and Latin? What would be the clues?

That Latin word has Greek origin, so you can understand which of its meanings is used in the text, only knowing  context.
