two (masculine form)
| Root | תרי (t-r-y) |
| Core Meanings | two, duality, pair, second |
| Semantic Range | two; a pair; second (in certain constructions); as part of compound numbers (e.g., twelve). |
| Conceptual Significance | As a foundational numeral, "two" expresses duality, pairing, and witness (e.g., two witnesses), and functions in forming larger symbolic numbers such as twelve, which carries covenantal and tribal significance in biblical literature. |
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic cardinal numeral, masculine form (absolute/construct state), used in agreement with masculine nouns; corresponds to Hebrew שְׁנַיִם. Appears here in singular construct/absolute numeral usage. |
| Rendering Rationale | תְּרֵי is the Aramaic masculine form of the cardinal number "two," corresponding to Hebrew שְׁנַיִם. The rendering "two (masculine form)" preserves its basic numerical sense while reflecting that this specific form is grammatically masculine, used with masculine nouns in agreement. |
