matters concerning
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common, feminine plural construct; used adverbially or prepositionally to denote grounds, topics, or reasons. |
| Rendering Rationale | Though derived from a root meaning "to turn," this feminine plural construct form functions idiomatically as a plural noun indicating the matters or grounds "concerning" which something turns. "Matters concerning" preserves the plural construct sense and reflects its use in specifying topics or reasons. |
