enduring
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, masculine singular, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The adjective derives from a root meaning "to endure" or "to be perpetual/constant." As a masculine singular adjective in the absolute state, "enduring" preserves the core sense of lasting firmness without adding contextual nuance. |
