SIBI-P1 Translation G1841-01

a departure

Morphological NotesNoun, accusative feminine singular (Gr,N,,,,,AFS); denotes a single instance of departure functioning as a direct object or object of a preposition.
Rendering RationaleThe term literally denotes a ‘way out’ or act of going out (ἐκ + ὁδός). Rendering it as “a departure” preserves the core sense of an exit or going out, while the accusative singular form is reflected by the simple singular object form in English.
