SIBI-P1 G5342-25

bearing (the bearing-one / the bearing-thing)

Morphological NotesVerb, present active participle (PPA). Occurs as nominative masculine singular (NMS) and accusative neuter singular (ANS). Present tense indicates ongoing action; active voice shows the subject performs the action; participle functions adjectivally or substantivally depending on context.
Rendering RationaleThe rendering "bearing" preserves the core sense of φέρω as carrying or bringing. As a present active participle, it conveys ongoing action ("bearing" or "carrying"). The nominative masculine singular form denotes "the bearing-one" (a male subject who is carrying), while the accusative neuter singular denotes "the bearing-thing" (that which is carrying or bringing), thus reflecting both grammatical gender and case distinctions.
