Maybe the answer could possibly be achieved by means
other than analyzing language:
Gen 18
22 And the men turned from thence, and went toward
Sodom; but Abraham stood yet before the LORD. (YHWH)
Gen 19
1 And the two angels came to Sodom at even; and Lot
sat in the gate of Sodom; and Lot saw them, and rose
up to meet them; and he fell down on his face to the
earth;
By using simple math:
3 perceived men (iysh) minus 1 (YHWH) equals 2
(malak)
