and tooth of
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common; singular; construct state; prefixed conjunction וְ ("and"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun שֵׁן derives from the root idea of sharpness or pointedness and most basically denotes a "tooth." The singular construct form requires a following genitive, so it is rendered "tooth of," with the prefixed conjunction "and" preserved. |
