Throw!
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist active imperative, 2nd person singular (Gr,V,MAI2,S). The aorist imperative conveys a summary or decisive command; active voice indicates the subject performs the action. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form βάλε is aorist active imperative, second person singular, expressing a direct and decisive command. "Throw!" preserves the core force of βάλλω (to cast or hurl) and reflects the aorist imperative’s sense of a simple, complete action commanded of one person. |
