SIBI-P1 G3384-04
to/for the mother
| Morphological Notes | Noun, dative feminine singular (Gr,N,,,,,DFS,). The dative case indicates indirect object, advantage, association, or reference; singular feminine agrees with the natural gender of the noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | The lemma μήτηρ means "mother" in both literal and figurative senses. The form μητρὶ is dative feminine singular, which commonly expresses indirect object, association, means, or sphere; therefore "to/for the mother" preserves both the core meaning and the dative relational function of the form. |
