SIBI-P1 G1724-01
of the in-sea (things)
| Morphological Notes | Adjectival substantive in the genitive neuter plural (Gr,NS,,,,GNP,), meaning "of in-sea things"; genitive case indicating relation or inclusion, neuter plural referring to non-personal entities. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the compound sense of ἐν ("in") and ἅλς ("sea"), expressing location and belonging. The genitive neuter plural form is reflected by "of the" and the plural "things," showing possession/source and number while retaining the adjectival force used substantively. |
