SIBI-P1 H7969-26
and for three
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ + preposition לִ + cardinal number שְׁלֹשׁ in the feminine singular absolute form (Acfsa). The feminine form of "three" is typically used when counting feminine nouns. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form consists of the conjunction וְ ("and") plus the preposition לִ ("for/to") attached to the feminine singular absolute form of the cardinal number "three." English does not distinguish grammatical gender in numerals, so "three" preserves the quantitative sense while the conjunction and preposition are rendered explicitly. |
