great (feminine singular)
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, feminine, singular, nominative (also attested in accusative feminine singular in some forms listed); predicate/adjectival form modifying a feminine singular noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | The adjective derives from the root μεγ-, denoting greatness in size, intensity, or importance. The feminine singular nominative form agrees with a feminine singular noun and is rendered simply as "great" to preserve the core sense without contextual narrowing. |
