SIBI-P1 Translation G875-02
foaming
| Morphological Notes | Verb; present tense (ongoing action), active voice, participle; nominative masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The present active participle conveys ongoing or continuous action; thus "foaming" reflects the repeated or active production of foam inherent in the root. As nominative masculine singular, it describes a male subject characterized by this action. |
