SIBI-P1 Translation H5869-19
there is not
| Morphological Notes | Negative existential particle (HTn); used to negate existence or presence. |
| Rendering Rationale | The particle אֵין expresses absolute non-existence or absence rather than simple prohibition. Rendering it as "there is not" preserves its function as a negation of existence rather than a verbal negation. |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
an eye
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'there is not' is incorrect; the word is the noun 'eye'. Rendering as 'an eye' per the lexicon and context. |
| P1 Flag | P1 rendered H5869 as an existential clause ('there is not') rather than the noun 'eye'. |
