SIBI-P1 G4973-01
a seal-mark
| Morphological Notes | Noun, accusative, feminine, singular (Gr,N,,,,,AFS). Functions as a direct object; refers to one seal. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "seal-mark" preserves the concrete image of something impressed by a signet for authentication or protection. The form is accusative feminine singular, indicating a single seal as the direct object within its clause; English does not mark case distinctly here, but the singular countable form reflects the morphology. |
