SIBI-P1 G3398-05
of small (masculine) ones
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, genitive masculine plural (GMP) in the listed forms μικρῶν; also attested here as accusative masculine singular (AMS) μικρὸν. The genitive plural denotes possession, source, or relation; the accusative singular functions as a direct object or substantive adjective. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the root sense of smallness inherent in μικρός while reflecting the genitive masculine plural form (μικρῶν) through the phrase "of small ones." The masculine gender and plural number are retained, and the genitive case is conveyed by "of." |
