"Or "ὑπόστασις"" Latin really does violence to the meaning of the word, as does English. What's the word in Slavonic?

The Greek word hypostasis is either left untranslated nad simply transliterated as ѵпостаси (as in Hebrews 1:3), or it is translated as bytiye, which means being (as in Greek), from the Slavonic verb быти (byti), to be.
