SIBI-P1 Translation G4212-01
how many times
| Morphological Notes | Adverb (multiplicative interrogative/relative); indeclinable; expresses frequency or number of repeated actions. |
| Rendering Rationale | The adverb derives from ποσ- ("how many") with the multiplicative suffix -κις, explicitly asking or indicating the number of occurrences. "How many times" preserves the quantitative force inherent in the root rather than the more general "how often." |
