SIBI-P1 Translation G2087-01
other things
| Morphological Notes | Adjectival determiner from ἕτερος; accusative neuter plural form (ANP), functioning substantivally or modifying a neuter plural noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | The neuter plural accusative form denotes multiple distinct items of a different kind. "Other things" preserves the sense of distinction or contrast inherent in ἕτερος while reflecting the neuter plural morphology. |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
other
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | 'Other things' in P1 is not precise. Here, in this phrase, 'other' (as an adjective) is more appropriate to refer to a different kind or sort. This fits the contrasting nature of the term. |
