SIBI-P1 G4008-01
beyond (of), across-from
| Morphological Notes | Indeclinable adverb and preposition. In the cited forms it appears as a preposition governing the genitive case (Gr,PI,,,,G,,,) and as an adverb (Gr,D,,,,,,,,,) meaning "beyond" or "on the far side." It does not inflect for gender or number. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "beyond (of), across-from" preserves the core spatial sense of movement or position to the far side of something. The parenthetical "of" reflects its function as a preposition governing the genitive case in many occurrences, while the simple spatial term maintains its adverbial use where no object is expressed. |
