wrongdoings
| Morphological Notes | Noun, accusative plural, feminine (Gr,N,,,,,AFP); functions as a feminine plural object form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The plural accusative feminine form denotes multiple instances of deviation or moral failure. "Wrongdoings" preserves the root sense of erring or missing the mark while reflecting the concrete, plural noun form. |
