| Morphological Notes | Noun, accusative masculine singular (Gr,N,,,,,AMS); resultative -μα formation indicating the result of the verbal action. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun κύλισμα derives from κυλιόω (to roll, wallow) with the resultative suffix -μα, denoting the result or product of rolling—namely the filth or defiled place produced by wallowing. The accusative masculine singular form indicates a single instance of such wallow-filth as a direct object. |
