SIBI-P1 G4077-03
the gushing-source (feminine singular; ‘the’ or ‘to/at the gushing-source’ depending on case)
| Morphological Notes | Gr,N,,,,,NFS = noun, nominative, feminine, singular; Gr,N,,,,,DFS = noun, dative, feminine, singular. The forms indicate a feminine singular noun appearing as either subject (nominative) or indirect object/location (dative). |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering “gushing-source” reflects the probable connection to πηγνύμι in the sense of something that bursts or springs forth, emphasizing an active, flowing origin rather than a static well. The feminine singular form is preserved, and the note accounts for both nominative (subject) and dative (to/at) usages attested in the morphology. |
