Morphological NotesAdjective (substantive use), genitive masculine singular; from διετής, describing one in or having completed the second year.
Rendering RationaleThe adjective διετής means "being of two years" and in the genitive masculine singular form διετοῦς denotes possession or relation: "of a two-year-old." This preserves both the age descriptor and the genitive case.
