SIBI-P1 Translation G2233-04
I have deemed
| Morphological Notes | Verb; perfect tense, middle voice (deponent in form but active in meaning), indicative mood; first person singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The perfect middle indicative first singular expresses a completed act with present result, reflecting an assessment the speaker has arrived at and now holds. "Have deemed" preserves both the evaluative sense and the perfect aspect, while acknowledging the verb’s middle (self-engaged) force. |
