kikkâr
talents
A round object or area; specifically, (1) a circular or disc-shaped loaf of bread, (2) a region or tract of land of circular formation (notably the area of the Jordan valley, especially south of Jericho), (3) a unit of weight for precious metals (talent), likely referencing a round shape. The word kikkâr thus designates objects (loaf, coin), geographic formations (plain, especially the Jordan valley), and measures (talent) that share a basic quality of roundness or circuit.

circular units
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common; plural, absolute state; gender classified as both but here plural form כִּכָּרִים. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun כִּכָּר derives from the root כרר, emphasizing roundness or encirclement. Rendering it as "circular units" preserves the core idea of round form while remaining broad enough to encompass loaves, coins, measured weights, or circumscribed tracts of land; the plural form reflects כִּכָּרִים. |
