SIBI-P1 G4712-02
of fixed-measure race-courses
| Morphological Notes | Noun, genitive plural (forms parsed as either genitive masculine plural or genitive neuter plural). The lemma στάδιον is primarily neuter; the form σταδίων functions as genitive plural, indicating possession, measure, or relation ("of …"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun στάδιον denotes a fixed, standard measure of distance and by extension the race-course marked by that measure. Rendering it as "fixed-measure race-courses" preserves the root idea of something established or set (from ἵστημι, "to set/stand") while the genitive plural form is reflected by "of … race-courses." |
