a gnawing moth
| Morphological Notes | Common noun, masculine singular absolute (HNcmsa); one attested variant appears as feminine singular absolute (HNcfsa). No article or suffix in the given forms. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun is masculine singular absolute, so it is rendered as a singular common noun: "a gnawing moth." The modifier "gnawing" reflects the underlying root sense of wasting away or consuming, preserving the semantic connection between the insect and the idea of decay. |
