SIBI-P1 G1883-01
over-above (governing the genitive)
| Morphological Notes | Preposition (improper), governing the genitive case (Gr,PI,,,,G,,,). Indeclinable adverbial-prepositional form derived from ἐπί + ἄνω. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "over-above" preserves the compound sense of ἐπί (upon) and ἄνω (up/above), retaining the spatial elevation inherent in the term. The note "governing the genitive" reflects its function here as an improper preposition regularly taking the genitive case, indicating position or relation over something. |
