SIBI-P1 Translation G3697-04
what sort
| Morphological Notes | Interrogative/relative adjective; nominative masculine singular (Gr,RT,,,,NMS); functioning substantivally to describe qualitative nature. |
| Rendering Rationale | "What sort" directly reflects the qualitative force of ὁποῖος, denoting inquiry or specification about kind or character rather than identity. The nominative masculine singular form allows it to stand substantivally, referring to a masculine subject as "what sort (one)." |
