SIBI-P1 Translation G5550-01
in a span of time
| Morphological Notes | Noun, dative masculine singular (Gr,N,,,,,DMS); denotes a single measurable period used in a locative/instrumental sense. |
| Rendering Rationale | The dative singular form indicates location or sphere, naturally rendered with "in" to express being within a measurable duration. "Span of time" preserves the root sense of quantitative, extended duration rather than a specific moment. |
