SIBI-P1 Translation G4762-05
having been turned
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (completed action), passive voice (subject acted upon), participle; nominative feminine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist passive participle denotes a completed action in which the subject was acted upon, thus "having been turned." This preserves the core idea of directional change while reflecting the passive voice and participial form. |
