SIBI-P1 Translation H3173-03
unique one
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, masculine singular, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The adjective derives from the root meaning "to be one/unique" and in masculine singular absolute form denotes a single, one-of-a-kind individual. "Unique one" preserves the adjectival force while allowing its substantive use for a singular, irreplaceable person. |
