and three-of
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וּ ("and") + cardinal number שְׁלֹשֶׁת, masculine singular construct (Acmsc). The construct form is used before a counted plural noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form וּשְׁלֹשֶׁת consists of the conjunction וּ ("and") plus the masculine singular construct form of "three." The construct state binds it to a following noun, so "three-of" preserves both the triadic root sense and the grammatical requirement that it governs what follows. |
