| Morphological Notes | Gr,RI,,,,NMP — adjective/pronominal form; nominative case, masculine gender, plural number. Functions substantivally here as "other ones" serving as the subject of a clause. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "other ones" preserves the core contrastive sense of ἄλλος as denoting distinction from what precedes. The nominative masculine plural form (ἄλλοι) is reflected by "ones" (plural subjects) and marked as masculine to preserve the grammatical gender indicated in the morphology. |
