SIBI-P1 G2078-07
the farthest-one (accusative masculine singular)
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, superlative form. Attested here in accusative masculine singular (AMS), accusative neuter singular (ANS), genitive masculine plural (GMP), and once as an adverbial/dative form. Case, gender, and number shift according to the noun modified or substantivized use ("the last one," "of the last ones," "the last thing"). |
| Rendering Rationale | "Farthest-one" preserves the superlative force of ἔσχατος as the extreme or most distant in sequence, place, rank, or time. The accusative masculine singular reflects its adjectival use modifying or substantively describing a masculine singular object in the accusative case (direct object or extent). |
