SIBI-P1 H8184-06

and rough barleys

Morphological NotesNoun common feminine plural absolute (Ncfpa) with prefixed conjunction וְ ("and"). Though grammatically feminine, the plural refers collectively to barley grains or crops.
Rendering RationaleThe noun שְׂעֹרִים is feminine plural absolute, here with the conjunction וְ ("and"). Its root שׂער conveys the idea of roughness or hairiness, referring to the bristly awns of barley. Rendering it as "rough barleys" preserves both the plural feminine form and the root sense of coarse, bristling grain.
