copper/bronze (accusative singular)
| Morphological Notes | Noun; accusative singular; masculine (Gr,N,,,,,AMS) — direct object form of χαλκός. |
| Rendering Rationale | The lemma χαλκός denotes copper or bronze as a metal substance or object made from it. The accusative singular form χαλκόν is reflected by rendering it as a singular direct object, preserving the core material sense without reducing it to the metonymic 'money.' |
