ποίῳ
poîos
what
Interrogative adjective indicating quality or kind—'of what sort,' 'what kind,' 'what manner of.' The word is used to ask about the nature, quality, or character of something or someone, not merely to identify or single out. Contextually, it seeks information about the distinctive character or type of the subject, for example, 'what sort of man' or 'what kind of works.' In some cases it may extend to imply degree, implying 'how great' or 'what degree of.'

I make
| Morphological Notes | Verb; present tense (ongoing), active voice, indicative mood, 1st person singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The present active indicative first person singular denotes an ongoing or characteristic action performed by the speaker. "I make" preserves the core root sense of bringing about or performing while reflecting the active, first-person form. |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
what sort of
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'I make' is a lexical error. 'ποίῳ' is an interrogative adjective (not a verb), so correct rendering is 'what sort of.' |
| P1 Flag | Lexical error: P1 mapped to Strong's #G4160 (verb 'I make') instead of #G4169 (interrogative adj. 'what sort of'). |
