SIBI-P1 H369-16
to nothingness
| Morphological Notes | Preposition לְ (to/for) prefixed to the negative existential particle/noun אֵין. Functions adverbially or as a prepositional phrase indicating result ("to nothing," "into nothingness"). Indeclinable; no gender or number marking. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form לְאֵין combines the preposition לְ ("to/into/for") with אֵין (non-existence, nothingness). Rendering it as "to nothingness" preserves the core idea of movement or result toward non-being, reflecting both the prepositional prefix and the underlying concept of absence or non-existence. |
