SIBI-P1 G80-06
brother (male womb-kin)
| Morphological Notes | Noun; nominative masculine singular (Gr,N,,,,,NMS,). Functions typically as the subject or predicate nominative; denotes a single male person identified as a brother. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "brother (male womb-kin)" preserves the etymological sense of one "from the same womb" (a-delphys) while clearly indicating a male sibling. The nominative masculine singular form is reflected by the singular "brother," suitable for a subject or predicate nominative in context. |
