one setting aside

Morphological NotesVerb, present active participle, nominative masculine singular (Gr,V,PPA,NMS); denotes an ongoing action describing a male subject.
Rendering RationaleThe present active participle denotes an ongoing action; "one setting aside" preserves the continuous aspect and nominative masculine singular form while reflecting the root sense of putting something aside as invalid or unworthy.
