frail mortal
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular noun, absolute form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root meaning "to be weak or frail," so "frail mortal" preserves both the idea of humanity and the emphasis on inherent weakness and mortality embedded in the root. The singular masculine form is reflected in the singular English rendering. |
