| Morphological Notes | Feminine plural noun, absolute form (shortened plural of חוּץ). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from a root meaning "to sever" or "separate," denoting spaces that are separated from an interior domain. The feminine plural form is reflected by the plural "places," preserving the sense of multiple exterior areas beyond a boundary. |
