SIBI-P1 Translation G5154-06
of a third
| Morphological Notes | Adjective used substantively; genitive singular neuter (also form-identical with genitive singular masculine); ordinal form from τρεῖς. |
| Rendering Rationale | The genitive singular form denotes possession or relation, rendered concisely as "of a third," preserving the ordinal sense derived from τρεῖς (three). As a substantive adjective in the neuter singular, it can imply "a third part" without supplying additional context. |
