SIBI-P1 H1650-01
Bridge-land (Geshur)
| Morphological Notes | HNp: Hebrew Proper Noun, masculine singular; refers to a specific territorial entity or people associated with that territory. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name derives from the root גשר ("to join, bridge"), likely denoting a place characterized by connection or bridging—geographically or politically. As a Hebrew proper noun (masculine singular), the rendering preserves its singular place-name function while making the root meaning transparent through "Bridge-land." |
