SIBI-P1 H8032-02

the third-day-back

Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular absolute noun (HNcmsa), often used adverbially; also tagged as an adverb (HD) in some occurrences. No pronominal suffix; fixed temporal expression built from the root for "three."
Rendering RationaleThe noun derives from the root שלש (“three”) and literally denotes a third day in relation to the present. Rendering it as "the third-day-back" preserves the numerical-root sense while reflecting its masculine singular absolute form functioning substantivally/adverbially.
