SIBI-P1 Translation G48445-01
it was falling together
| Morphological Notes | Verb; imperfect active indicative, 3rd person singular (Gr,V,IAA3,,S,). The imperfect tense conveys ongoing or progressive action in past time; active voice; indicative mood; singular subject. |
| Rendering Rationale | The lemma συμπίπτω combines σύν (together) and πίπτω (to fall), literally meaning "to fall together." The imperfect active indicative (3rd person singular) denotes ongoing past action, so "it was falling together" preserves both the compound root sense and the continuous past aspect. |

| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | 'it collapsed' best represents the aorist action of the verb, per the common rendering; 'it was falling together' is awkward in English context. |
