SIBI-P1 G1492-21
I have seen and so know
| Morphological Notes | Verb; perfect active indicative, 1st person singular (Gr,V,IEA1,,S,). Perfect form with present-state meaning; active voice; declarative mood; singular speaker. |
| Rendering Rationale | οἶδα is perfect active indicative, first person singular, from a root meaning "to see." Though functioning as a present in sense, it is formally a perfect, expressing a completed act with abiding result. "I have seen and so know" preserves both the sight-based root and the perfect aspect that grounds present knowledge in prior perception. |
