SIBI-P1 Translation G2804-01
Claudius
| Morphological Notes | Noun, accusative, masculine, singular (Gr,N,,,,,AMS) — proper name in object form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The term is a proper masculine personal name of Latin origin; the accusative singular form Κλαύδιον identifies a specific male individual named Claudius. English proper names do not inflect for case, so "Claudius" preserves the identity while reflecting the singular masculine form. |
