SIBI-P1 Translation G3624-06
households
| Morphological Notes | Noun, accusative masculine plural (Gr,N,,,,,AMP); direct-object form; plural indicates multiple dwelling units or household groups. |
| Rendering Rationale | The accusative masculine plural form denotes multiple dwelling-units understood as inhabited households rather than merely physical structures. "Households" preserves the root sense of inhabited dwelling spaces and their associated members while reflecting the plural and accusative form. |
