SIBI-P1 G1410-13
we were having-power
| Morphological Notes | Verb; imperfect tense; middle (deponent in form, active in meaning); indicative mood; first person plural. The imperfect denotes continuous or repeated past action: "we were able" or "we kept being able." |
| Rendering Rationale | The root δύναμαι is related to δύναμις (power) and denotes possessing ability or capability. The imperfect tense (IPM1) indicates ongoing past action, and the first person plural form means "we." Rendering it as "we were having-power" preserves both the connection to the power-root and the imperfect, ongoing aspect in past time. |
