of yourself
| Morphological Notes | Reflexive pronoun; second person; singular; genitive; masculine form (agreeing with a masculine referent). |
| Rendering Rationale | The genitive singular form expresses possession or relation, thus "of yourself." It preserves the reflexive force of the compound pronoun (you + self) and reflects the second person singular genitive morphology. |
