| Morphological Notes | Masculine construct form of the cardinal number שְׁנַיִם (two). Used before a masculine noun to express "two of" in a genitive (construct) relationship. |
| Rendering Rationale | שְׁנֵי is the masculine construct form of the cardinal number "two," derived from the root שנה in the sense of doubling or repetition. The rendering "two of" preserves its construct relationship, indicating that it governs a following noun, and reflects its masculine grammatical form as used with masculine nouns. |
