spoken words
| Morphological Notes | Noun; accusative case, masculine gender, plural number (AMP). |
| Rendering Rationale | "Spoken words" reflects the root sense of λόγος as something said or expressed in speech. The accusative masculine plural (λόγους) is preserved by rendering it as a plural direct object form in English. |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
words
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'spoken words' adds 'spoken,' which is not explicit in the Greek. In context, 'words' alone fits the construction and matches the accusative plural noun as found after an active of hearing/reading. Adjusted for context. |
