| Morphological Notes | Preposition (inseparable); marks source, separation, cause, comparison, or partitive relation. |
| Rendering Rationale | "From" directly reflects the preposition’s core function of marking separation, origin, or source, preserving the root idea of movement or distinction away from a point. As an inseparable preposition, it conveys relational separation without inflection. |
