I am training
| Morphological Notes | Verb; present tense (ongoing action), active voice, indicative mood, first person singular — "I am doing." |
| Rendering Rationale | The present active indicative, first person singular denotes an ongoing action performed by the speaker. "I am training" preserves the root sense of upbringing and formative instruction inherent in παιδεύω without narrowing it to punitive discipline alone. |
