| Morphological Notes | Noun, accusative feminine plural (Gr,N,,,,,AFP): direct object form; feminine gender; plural number. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun ἀκοή denotes either the act/faculty of hearing or that which is heard. In the accusative feminine plural (ἀκοὰς), it most naturally refers to multiple instances of "things heard," hence "reports," preserving both the root idea of hearing and the plural form. |
