Morphological NotesPreposition בְּ + common noun, singular, construct state; gender listed as both.
Rendering RationaleThe noun כִּכָּר derives from the root כרר, conveying roundness or encirclement; rendered here as "round tract" to preserve that core idea. The prefixed בְּ preposition is reflected by "in," and the singular construct form is maintained with a singular English expression.
