SIBI-P1 H2290-03
a girding-belt
| Morphological Notes | Common feminine singular noun in the absolute state; derived from the verbal root חגר (Qal: to gird oneself). No pronominal suffix present. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root חגר, "to gird or bind around the waist," so "girding-belt" preserves the action-oriented sense of something used for girding. The form is a feminine singular absolute noun (HNcfsa), which is reflected by the singular English rendering without possessive or plural elements. |
