my eyes

Morphological NotesCommon noun, dual construct form (עֵינַי < עֵינֵי/עֵינַיִם) with 1cs pronominal suffix; literally "the two eyes of me." Though grammatically dual, it functions as a natural pair and is rendered as a plural in English.
Rendering RationaleThe form עֵינַי is the dual construct of עַיִן ("eye") with a first common singular suffix, literally "eyes of me." Rendering it as "my eyes" preserves the concrete root sense of organs of sight (and perception) while accurately reflecting the dual form and 1st person singular possession.
