he/she/it threw
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple past, completed action), active voice, indicative mood, 3rd person singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active indicative, third person singular, expresses a simple completed action in past time. "He/she/it threw" preserves the core sense of deliberate casting from βάλλω and reflects the singular third-person subject. |
