and-they-are-not
A particle of negation meaning 'there is not,' 'is not,' or 'does not exist'; used to express the absence, non-existence, or lack of a person, thing, quality, or condition. By extension, it can mark someone as lacking (e.g., fatherless), or denote a place or thing as absent or no longer present. Rarely functions substantively to indicate a non-entity or nothingness.

SIBI-P1 Translation H369-29
and they are absent
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ + existential negative particle אין + 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The particle אין asserts non-existence or absence; with the prefixed conjunction וְ it adds "and," and the 3rd masculine plural suffix specifies "they." The rendering preserves the existential force and the plural pronominal reference. |
