imperishability
| Morphological Notes | Noun, feminine, singular, accusative (Gr,N,,,,,AFS) — abstract quality or state functioning as a direct object or goal. |
| Rendering Rationale | "Imperishability" directly reflects the root sense of being exempt from decay or corruption (ἀ- + φθείρω) and preserves the abstract state conveyed by the feminine singular accusative noun form. |
