SIBI-P1 Translation H6030-35
she will answer you
| Morphological Notes | Qal imperfect, 3rd feminine singular + 2nd masculine singular pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal imperfect 3rd feminine singular expresses a simple future or incomplete action, here "she will answer," with the 2nd masculine singular suffix indicating the recipient, "you." The rendering preserves both the feminine subject and the responsive sense of the root. |

SILEX v2
SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
she answers you
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | Retained P1's sense but adjusted tense from 'will answer' to simple present 'answers' to match narrative conditional style. 'She' remains correct as the implied city's grammatical gender. |
