SIBI-P1 G1125-05
he/she was writing
| Morphological Notes | Verb; imperfect tense, active voice, indicative mood; 3rd person singular. The imperfect denotes continuous or repeated action in past time. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb γράφω carries the concrete sense of inscribing or recording in writing. The imperfect active indicative (3rd person singular) expresses a past ongoing or continuous action, hence "was writing," preserving both the durative aspect and the active voice of the Greek form. |
