upon-the-morrow
| Morphological Notes | Gr,D = adverb; temporal adverb, indeclinable, functioning to specify time ("on the following day"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The term combines ἐπί (upon) with αὔριον (morrow), literally conveying "upon the morrow." Rendering it as "upon-the-morrow" preserves the compound structure and its temporal force while reflecting its adverbial function (Gr,D), indicating when an action occurs rather than modifying a noun. |
