SIBI-P1 G2537-07
new-in-kind thing (neuter singular, nominative/accusative)
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, neuter singular; occurring in nominative or accusative case (NNS/ANS). It may function attributively with a neuter noun or substantivally as a neuter singular adjective meaning "a new thing." |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "new-in-kind" preserves the distinction between καινός (new in quality or kind) and νέος (new in age). The addition of "thing" reflects the neuter singular form, which in nominative or accusative case can function substantivally, indicating a new reality or entity. |
