γε
gé
at least
A particle used to add emphasis, stress, or particular nuance to a statement, often reinforcing or highlighting a word or phrase within its immediate syntactic context. γέ does not usually stand alone but is employed to underline a limitation, qualification, or minimal assertion, and can convey meanings such as 'indeed', 'at least', 'even', or 'certainly', depending on context. Its force is typically subtle, accentuating or directing attention to what immediately precedes it, and its English equivalents vary according to use.

O land
| Morphological Notes | Noun, feminine, singular, vocative; direct address to the earth/land as a personified entity. |

SILEX v2
SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
at least
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'O land' is a root/Strong's error; the particle means 'at least' or adds emphasis to the preceding phrase. Correcting for context. |
| P1 Flag | wrong root/Strong's; γέ is not 'land' but an intensive particle |
