SIBI-P1 Translation G237-01
from another place
| Morphological Notes | Adverb (Gr,D); denotes origin or source, functioning adverbially without inflection for case, number, or gender. |
| Rendering Rationale | The adverb combines ἄλλος (other, another) with the suffix -θεν indicating origin or source, yielding the sense of coming from a different place or source. "From another place" preserves both the idea of otherness and the directional/source nuance inherent in the form. |
