SIBI-P1 Translation G2515-01
official seats
| Morphological Notes | Noun, feminine; attested here as accusative plural (also occurs as genitive singular in this form). |
| Rendering Rationale | The accusative feminine plural form denotes multiple seats; rendering it as "official seats" preserves the root sense of a set-down sitting-place while reflecting its common nuance of recognized authority or standing. |
