Set-Apart Mountain
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun; singular; name of a specific mountain or mountain range. |
| Rendering Rationale | The proper name derives from the root חרם, "to devote, set apart," and likely reflects the mountain’s imposing or sacred character as a place set apart. Rendering it as "Set-Apart Mountain" preserves both its geographic identity and its probable root association. |
