my brothers
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine noun plural construct (אֲחֵי/אַחַי) with 1cs pronominal suffix; literally “brothers of me.” |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun אָח means “brother” in the sense of one bound by kinship or close association. The form is masculine plural construct with a 1st person singular suffix ("brothers of me"), correctly rendered as "my brothers," preserving both the fraternal root sense and the masculine plural with possessive. |
