SIBI-P1 Translation H734-11
well-trodden path
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common, singular, absolute; gender marked as both in lexicon usage. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root meaning "to travel" or "to tread a path," so "well-trodden path" preserves the concrete sense of a traveled route while allowing for its extended metaphorical sense of a life-course. The singular absolute form is reflected by a simple singular noun without suffix. |
