Exegesis
Each of these verbs is followed by a manner construction using hos {ὡς | hōs} “as, like” plus the predicate nominative nepios {νήπιος | nḗ-pi-os} “child,” forming a rhythmic parallelism that underscores how every aspect of communication and thought belonged to a childish mode.
In context — 1 Corinthians 13:11
