SIBI-P1 Translation G3418-03
to a memorial tomb
| Morphological Notes | Noun, dative singular, neuter (Gr,N,,,,,DNS): indicating indirect object, location, means, or relation in the singular form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering reflects the root idea of a constructed memorial structure that causes remembrance, in line with μνη- (“to remember”). The dative singular form is preserved by expressing indirect or locative sense with “to,” maintaining the noun’s neuter singular morphology. |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
memorial tomb
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'to a memorial tomb' is not accurate as it wrongly adds the preposition; the phrase only needs the noun 'memorial tomb' as the object of 'in the' from prior words. Removed 'to a' for accuracy. |
