SIBI-P1 Translation G3441-09
of the sole one
| Morphological Notes | Adjectival determiner; genitive masculine singular form of μόνος (Gr,EF,,,,GMS), expressing possession, source, or relation. |
| Rendering Rationale | The genitive masculine singular form requires an English genitive construction ("of"). "Sole one" preserves the root idea of exclusivity and singleness inherent in μόνος without importing contextual nuance. |
