Greek NT ἀποκριθεὶς
Peshitta ܘܥܢܐ
Vulgate respondens

Greek uses a single aorist passive participle ἀποκριθεὶς ('answering'); the Vulgate mirrors this with the present participle respondens. The Peshitta employs the characteristic Semitic paratactic verb-chain ܘܥܢܐ ('and he answered'), a finite verb coordinated with the following ܘܐܡܪ, so the participle's index here maps onto the Syriac finite verb already counted in the preceding group.

Greek NT λέγει·
Peshitta ܘܐܡܪ
Vulgate ait Quæ

The Greek uses the historic present λέγει ('he says'), whereas both the Peshitta ܘܐܡܪ and the Vulgate ait render it as a past/aorist 'said', smoothing the vivid Markan present tense; the Vulgate also adds an explicit colon as discourse punctuation.

Greek NT τίς ἐστιν
Peshitta ܡܢ ܗܝ
Vulgate est mater

Greek τίς ἐστιν combines interrogative pronoun and copula; the Peshitta renders the question with interrogative ܡܢ plus the demonstrative/copular ܗܝ ('who [is] she'), supplying the feminine pronoun as copula, while the Vulgate Quæ est matches the Greek closely with feminine interrogative and verb.

Greek NT ἡ μήτηρ
Peshitta ܐܡܝ
Vulgate mea

Greek marks the noun with the definite article ἡ μήτηρ; the Vulgate mater and the Peshitta ܐܡܝ (with the first-person suffix bound to the noun) lack an article, the Syriac fusing the possessive into a single inflected form.

Greek NT καὶ
Peshitta ܘܡܢ
Vulgate fratres

Greek and Latin use a simple coordinating καί / et; the Peshitta repeats the interrogative within the conjunction ܘܡܢ ('and who [are]'), re-asking the question over the second subject in typical Syriac balanced construction.

gloss Peshitta only
Peshitta ܐܢܘܢ

The Peshitta supplies the explicit third-person plural pronoun ܐܢܘܢ ('they [are]') as a copular element governing the second clause; neither the Greek nor the Vulgate expresses a separate copula here, the verb being gapped from the first clause.

Greek NT οἱ ἀδελφοί
Peshitta ܐܚܝ
Vulgate mei

Greek marks the plural noun with article οἱ ἀδελφοί; the Vulgate fratres and the Peshitta ܐܚܝ omit any article, the Syriac again fusing the first-person plural possessive suffix directly onto the noun.
