SIBI-P1 Translation G4802-04
discussing together
| Morphological Notes | Verb, present active participle, accusative masculine plural (Gr,V,PPA,AMP) — ongoing active action describing masculine plural objects. |
| Rendering Rationale | The present active participle conveys ongoing action, and the compound root (σύν + ζητέω) emphasizes mutual or joint inquiry. "Discussing together" preserves both the active sense and the core idea of shared examination or debate. |
