fruitless
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, nominative masculine singular; used as a predicate adjective describing a masculine singular noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | "Fruitless" directly reflects the privative prefix ἀ- (without) joined to καρπός (fruit), preserving the core idea of lacking produce or yield. As a nominative masculine singular adjective, it describes a singular masculine subject or functions predicatively of one. |
