immortalem

Immortalem is the accusative singular masculine or feminine form of the Latin adjective immortalis, meaning "immortal" or "undying." In Latin grammar, immortalis is a third-declension adjective of the -alis type. The masculine nominative singular is immortalis, the neuter nominative/accusative singular is immortale, and the accusative singular masculine or feminine form is immortalem, used when the adjective modifies a noun in the accusative case.

Etymology and form: immortalis is formed from the prefix in- (not) plus mortalis (mortal), reflecting the sense of not being mortal. The word family extends to other gender-number forms to agree with the noun it describes, as is typical for Latin adjectives.

Usage and context: Immortalem appears in Latin texts whenever the noun it modifies is masculine or feminine and in the accusative case. It is commonly found in religious, philosophical, or literary contexts where concepts of immortality, undying nature, or divine status are discussed. In translations, immortalem functions the same as the English “immortal” when describing a noun in the accusative.
