Common Translation
| Phrase | my face |
SIBI-P1 Translation H6440-48
my face
| Morphological Notes | Common noun, plural form (plural of extension), construct state with 1st person common singular pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root meaning "to turn" and denotes what is turned outward and visible—the face or surface. The construct plural form with a 1st person singular suffix yields "my face," preserving both the plural-of-extension form and the possessive morphology. |
