SIBI-P1 Translation H4490-05
her allotted portions
| Morphological Notes | Noun, feminine plural construct + 3rd feminine singular pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מָנָה denotes a measured or apportioned share derived from counting or assigning. The plural construct form with a 3rd feminine singular suffix yields "her allotted portions," preserving both the apportioning sense of the root and the possessive morphology. |
