SIBI-P1 G4383-03
the face/presence (neuter singular, nominative or accusative)
| Morphological Notes | Noun, neuter singular; attested here in nominative singular (NNS) and accusative singular (ANS) forms. As a neuter second-declension noun, nominative and accusative singular share the same surface form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "face/presence" preserves the concrete sense of what is turned toward view (the "face" or "front") while allowing for its extended meaning of personal presence. The form is neuter singular, appearing in either nominative (subject) or accusative (direct object) case in the cited occurrences, which is reflected in the grammatical note within the rendering. |
