SIBI-P1 Translation H3788-02
and in fitness
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וּ + preposition בְ + masculine singular common noun, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun כִּשְׁרוֹן denotes the abstract quality of being fit or suitable, so "fitness" preserves the root sense of suitability. The prefixed conjunction וּ and preposition בְ are reflected in "and in," and the masculine singular absolute form is maintained as a singular abstract noun. |

SILEX v2
SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
and in skillfulness
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | 'Skillfulness' is contextually more precise for כִשְׁרוֹן, which relates to capability or proficiency; 'fitness' could be misunderstood as physical, so an adjustment is made from P1 for accuracy. |
