SIBI-P1 Translation G191-32
he/she might hear
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple/complete aspect), active voice, subjunctive mood, 3rd person singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active subjunctive expresses a simple, undefined act of hearing viewed as potential or contingent. "Might hear" preserves the subjunctive mood and the root sense of perceiving by hearing, while the third singular is reflected in "he/she." |
