SIBI-P1 Translation H4480-14
from us
| Morphological Notes | Preposition מן with 1st person common plural pronominal suffix ("us"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The preposition מן conveys separation or origin from a source, and the 1st person common plural suffix specifies that the source is ‘us.’ The rendering preserves both the root sense of separation and the plural pronominal morphology. |
