SIBI-P1 Translation H269-23
and sister of
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction waw + noun, common feminine singular construct from אָחוֹת. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun is feminine singular in construct state, requiring the sense "sister of" to show relational linkage. The prefixed waw conjunction adds "and," preserving both morphology and the root kinship meaning from אח. |
