SIBI-P1 Translation G3376-03
lunar months
| Morphological Notes | Noun; accusative masculine plural (Gr,N,,,,,AMP); denotes multiple months functioning as a direct object or measure of duration. |
| Rendering Rationale | The accusative masculine plural form μῆνας denotes multiple units of time measured by the lunar cycle. "Lunar months" preserves the root connection to the moon (μην-) and reflects the plural accusative form as counted durations. |
