SIBI-P1 Translation G5177-01
has obtained
| Morphological Notes | Verb, perfect tense, active voice, indicative mood, 3rd person singular (Gr,V,IEA3,,S,) — completed action with ongoing result. |
| Rendering Rationale | The perfect active indicative, third singular, denotes a completed action with present results. Given the root sense of reaching or attaining, "has obtained" preserves both the attainment nuance and the perfect aspect of a state now resulting from that attainment. |
