Morphological NotesFeminine singular noun in construct form with 1st person common singular pronominal suffix.
Rendering RationaleThe noun שֵׁנָה denotes the state or condition of sleeping, derived from the root ישן. The feminine singular construct form with a 1st person common singular suffix yields the possessive sense “my sleep,” preserving both the abstract state and the pronominal attachment.
