| Morphological Notes | Interrogative pronoun; nominative case; masculine; singular (Gr,RT,,,,NMS). |
| Rendering Rationale | As a nominative masculine singular interrogative pronoun, it most directly asks the identity of a person, hence "who?" The nominative case suits a subject inquiry, and the masculine singular aligns with a personal referent. |
