Morphological NotesConjunction וּ + feminine construct form of the cardinal number שְׁתַּיִם (two). Tagged HC/Acfdc: Hebrew conjunction + adjective cardinal feminine dual construct. Used before a feminine plural noun in construct relationship.
Rendering RationaleThe form וּשְׁתֵּי consists of the conjunction וּ ("and") prefixed to the feminine construct form of the cardinal number "two." The construct state requires completion by a following noun (“two of…”), and the feminine form agrees with a feminine noun. The rendering preserves both the additive conjunction and the construct sense inherent in the morphology.
