SIBI-P1 G2443-01
in-order-that
| Morphological Notes | Gr,CS = Greek conjunction, subordinating. ἵνα introduces a purpose or result clause, most frequently followed by a verb in the subjunctive mood to express intended, desired, or potential outcome. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "in-order-that" preserves the telic (purpose-oriented) force inherent in ἵνα, marking intention or intended result rather than a mere logical connection. As a subordinating conjunction, it introduces a dependent clause—most often with the subjunctive mood—expressing aim, design, or contemplated outcome. |
