word
| Morphological Notes | Noun, accusative masculine singular (Gr,N,,,,,AMS): one masculine noun in the direct object case. |
| Rendering Rationale | "Word" preserves the core sense of something spoken or expressed, in line with the root λέγ- (to say, to speak). The accusative masculine singular form indicates a single instance functioning as a direct object, though English does not mark case distinctly here. |
