to two
| Morphological Notes | Determiner/numeral; dative plural (masculine or feminine) form of δύο. |
| Rendering Rationale | The dative plural form δυσί denotes the cardinal number ‘two’ in the dative case, expressing relation such as ‘to’ or ‘for’ two entities. Rendering it as ‘to two’ preserves both the numerical core meaning and the dative morphology without adding contextual interpretation. |
