Myra
| Morphological Notes | Noun, accusative, neuter, plural; proper noun functioning as a geographic designation. |
| Rendering Rationale | Μύρα is a proper noun designating the Lycian city of Myra; the accusative neuter plural form reflects its standard Greek morphological shape but does not alter its function as a place name. English retains the invariant form "Myra" while implicitly carrying the accusative role. |
