SIBI-P1 H3967-01
in a hundred
| Morphological Notes | Preposition בְּ ("in/with/by") prefixed to מֵאָה, a feminine singular absolute numeral (cardinal number). No pronominal suffix; singular in form though numerically large. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מֵאָה is a feminine singular absolute meaning "hundred." The prefixed preposition בְּ ("in, with, by") governs the noun, so "in a hundred" preserves both the numeric sense and the singular feminine form indicated by the morphology (common feminine singular absolute with prefixed preposition). |
