was going to happen
To be, to exist, to live; the core copulative verb indicating existence, presence, or identity. Functions as the primary verb for expressing 'being' or existence, used to connect a subject with a predicate or to indicate presence in a particular state or condition. Semantic range includes factual existence ('to exist, to be'), locative or situational presence ('to be present, to be in a place or condition'), identity statements ('to be [something/someone]'), and, at times, expressing equivalence, belonging, or occurrence ('to mean, to signify, to occur, to take place').

SIBI-P1 Translation G1510-17
about to be
| Morphological Notes | Verb; future middle participle; accusative neuter singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The future participle expresses forthcoming existence or state, thus "about to be" reflects the verb’s core sense of being/existence in a future-oriented participial form. The middle voice is deponent here and does not add reflexive force, so the focus remains on future existence. |
