SIBI-P1 G2285-01
the dumbfounding stupefaction
| Morphological Notes | Noun, nominative neuter singular (Gr,N,,,,,NNS,); functioning as a subject or predicate nominative, denoting a singular state or condition. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the root sense of being struck speechless or stunned ("dumbfounded") that underlies θάμβος, while expressing the intense state of astonishment conveyed by the noun. The definite singular form reflects the nominative neuter singular morphology, presenting it as a concrete state or condition. |
