Grammatical Analysis

"μελών"

Verb type: standard (-ω) verb

Lemma: μέλω

Tense: present

Voice: active

Mood: participle

Case: genitive

Number: plural

Gender: masculine/neuter

Note: Form is compatible with M/N gen. pl. of the present active participle (μελών). Context is needed to decide masculine vs. neuter and whether the participle is from μέλω (‘be of concern, be an object of care’) or, less commonly, from μέλλω (‘be about to’), which has the same surface form here.
