your toddlers

Morphological NotesNoun, masculine singular collective in construct state + 2nd person masculine plural suffix ("your").
Rendering RationaleThe noun טַף derives from a root describing a tripping or toddling gait, denoting very young children characterized by such movement. The construct form with a 2nd person masculine plural suffix yields "your toddlers," preserving both the collective sense and the pronominal attachment.
