SIBI-P1 G5185-06

a smoke-obscured man

Morphological NotesAdjective, masculine singular nominative (and in some occurrences masculine singular accusative); functioning substantivally to describe a man characterized by blindness.
Rendering RationaleThe adjective derives from a root related to smoke or opacity (τυφόω), conveying the idea of being clouded or obscured. Rendering it as "smoke-obscured" preserves this imagery rather than using the flattened term "blind." The masculine singular nominative (and in some instances accusative) form is reflected by "man," maintaining grammatical gender and number.
