SIBI-P1 Translation G994-02
crying out loudly
| Morphological Notes | Verb, present active participle, accusative neuter plural (Gr,V,PPA,ANP): describing plural neuter entities in ongoing active vocal action. |
| Rendering Rationale | The present active participle conveys ongoing action, and the root βοά- denotes loud vocal expression. "Crying out loudly" preserves both the intensity of the root and the participial sense of active, continuous vocalization. |
