SIBI-P1 G3003-03
a legion (a single regimented host)
| Morphological Notes | Gr,N,,,,,NFS = noun, nominative, feminine, singular; a Latin loanword declined as a first-declension feminine noun in Greek. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun is nominative feminine singular, indicating one legion functioning as the subject. Rendering it as "a legion (a single regimented host)" preserves the singular form while highlighting the core idea of a formally organized military unit inherent in the Latin loanword. |
