and Erasure

Morphological NotesHC/Np: conjunction וּ ("and") prefixed to a masculine singular proper noun. The form מַחַת is a personal name derived from the verbal root מחה.
Rendering RationaleThe name מַחַת (Machath) is likely derived from the root מחה, meaning "to wipe out" or "to blot out." Rendering it as "Erasure" preserves the root sense while recognizing it as a masculine singular proper noun; the prefixed וּ is reflected by "and."
