SIBI-P1 Translation H7910-02
to a drunken woman
| Morphological Notes | Prefixed preposition לְ + feminine singular absolute adjective/participial form used substantively. |
| Rendering Rationale | The base form שִׁכּוֹרָה is the feminine singular of the adjectival participial form meaning "one who is drunk." The prefixed לְ adds the prepositional sense "to" or "for," and the feminine singular is preserved with "woman." |
