SIBI-P1 Translation PFX-L-07
to us
| Morphological Notes | Inseparable preposition ל with 1st common plural suffix נוּ (HR/Sp1cp). The dagesh in לָּ reflects assimilation of the preposition to the suffix in certain phonetic environments. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form consists of the preposition ל (“to/for”) with the first common plural pronominal suffix נוּ (“us”). The rendering “to us” preserves both the directional sense of ל and the 1st person plural reference indicated by the suffix. |

for us
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | The dative preposition לָ here is best rendered ‘for us’ rather than ‘to us’ in this context of benefit. It matches the function of making something remain for us. |
