SIBI-P1 Translation G3763-01
never at any time
| Morphological Notes | Adverb; indeclinable; expresses absolute temporal negation without inflection for case, number, or gender. |
| Rendering Rationale | The compound unites the negating force of οὐδέ (not even) with the temporal scope of ποτέ (ever, at any time), producing an absolute denial across all time. "Never at any time" preserves both the temporal breadth and the emphatic negation inherent in the adverb. |
