SIBI-P1 Translation H1505-02
she cut herself off
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hithpeel (reflexive-intensive), perfect, 3rd person feminine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root גזר conveys cutting or decreeing; in the Hithpeel (reflexive-intensive) perfect 3rd feminine singular, the action turns back on the subject, yielding a reflexive sense. "She cut herself off" preserves both the core image of severing and the feminine singular morphology. |
