SIBI-P1 G5117-03
of places (genitive masculine plural) / a place (accusative masculine singular)
| Morphological Notes | Noun from τόπος. Forms attested here include genitive masculine plural (GMP: ‘of places’) and accusative masculine singular (AMS: ‘a place’ as direct object). Second-declension masculine noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the core idea of τόπος as a concrete or figurative ‘place’ or ‘spot.’ The genitive masculine plural form is expressed as ‘of places,’ reflecting possession or relation, while the accusative masculine singular is rendered ‘a place,’ marking it as a direct object. Both maintain the noun’s spatial and situational sense inherent in the root. |
