his flowing discharge
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular common noun in construct state with 3rd person masculine singular pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives directly from the root meaning "to flow, drip, ooze," denoting a bodily emission characterized by ongoing flow. The masculine singular construct form with a 3ms suffix is rendered by adding "his," preserving both possession and number. |
