makes unseen
| Morphological Notes | Verb; present tense (ongoing action), active voice, indicative mood, 3rd person singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The present active indicative, third person singular denotes an ongoing or characteristic action performed by a singular subject. "Makes unseen" preserves the root sense of causing something to become invisible or unrecognizable, aligning with the active force of ἀφανίζω. |
