SIBI-P1 Translation H802-37

your women

Morphological NotesNoun, common feminine plural construct + 2nd person masculine plural pronominal suffix.
Rendering RationaleThe noun is the feminine plural construct form of אִשָּׁה (woman), derived from the root אישׁ, with a 2nd person masculine plural suffix. "Your women" preserves the plural feminine form and the possessive "your" (2mp) without restricting the sense to "wives," since no contextual narrowing is allowed in SIBI-P1.
