SIBI-P1 Translation H168-17

my tent

Morphological NotesMasculine singular noun in construct state with 1st person common singular pronominal suffix.
Rendering RationaleThe noun derives from the root meaning "to tent" or "to dwell in a tent," and in masculine singular construct with a 1st person common singular suffix it denotes personal possession. "My tent" preserves the portable-dwelling sense inherent in the root while reflecting the singular form and 1cs suffix.
