SIBI-P1 H7969-19
three (masculine form)
| Morphological Notes | Cardinal number; masculine singular absolute (HAcmsa). Used with masculine nouns; contrasts with feminine form שָׁלֹשׁ. |
| Rendering Rationale | שְׁלֹשָׁה is the masculine singular absolute form of the cardinal number derived from the root שלש, denoting threefold quantity. Because Hebrew numbers reflect grammatical gender, this rendering explicitly notes the masculine form to preserve the morphology while conveying the core meaning of threefoldness. |
