my gathering-together
| Morphological Notes | Piel infinitive construct with 1cs pronominal suffix; verbal noun expressing the speaker’s act of gathering. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Piel infinitive construct functions as a verbal noun, here with a 1st person common singular suffix, yielding "my gathering." The Piel stem intensifies the action, reflected in "gathering-together" to preserve the sense of purposeful assembling. |
