SIBI-P1 Translation H251-32
to your brothers
| Morphological Notes | Noun, masculine plural construct + 2nd person masculine plural suffix; prefixed ל preposition ("to/for"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The base noun אָח denotes a male sibling or kin associate. The plural construct form אֲחֵי with the 2nd person masculine plural suffix כֶם yields "your brothers," and the prefixed ל indicates direction or relation, hence "to your brothers." |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
for your brothers
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 gives 'to your brothers' but the preposition לְ here is better rendered as 'for' since the action is performed on behalf of ('for') their brothers. |
