SIBI-P1 Translation H3925-16
I instructed
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Piel stem (intensive/causative), perfect conjugation, 1st person common singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Piel stem expresses intensive or causative action—causing another to learn—so "I instructed" reflects the active teaching sense rather than simple learning. The perfect 1st person singular form conveys a completed action by "I." |
