to this one
| Morphological Notes | Demonstrative pronoun, dative feminine singular (3rd person); indicates nearness and functions as indirect object or dative of reference. |
| Rendering Rationale | The lemma οὗτος designates what is near or present. The dative feminine singular form αὐτῇ marks indirect object or reference, so "to this one" preserves both demonstrative force and dative function while maintaining feminine singular agreement. |
