SIBI-P1 G4098-19

he/she/it is falling

Morphological NotesVerb; present active indicative; 3rd person singular (Gr,V,IPA3,,S,). Denotes ongoing or customary action by a singular subject.
Rendering RationaleThe present active indicative, third person singular form denotes an ongoing or characteristic action performed by the subject. "Is falling" preserves the present tense’s continuous aspect and keeps the active voice and singular third-person force of πίπτει.
