SIBI-P1 G104-01
ever-continually
| Morphological Notes | Adverb (Gr,D); indeclinable. Expresses continuous or perpetual time without variation for case, number, or gender. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "ever-continually" preserves the root sense of uninterrupted or ongoing duration inherent in ἀεί, emphasizing sustained continuity rather than mere frequency. As an adverb (Gr,D), it is indeclinable and modifies verbs or clauses to express constant or perpetual action, which the English adverbial form reflects. |
