kingship
| Morphological Notes | Common feminine singular noun (מַלְכוּת), appearing in absolute and construct states. Derived from the verbal root מלך and denoting the abstract state or domain of reigning. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root מלך ("to reign, to be king") and denotes the state or exercise of kingly rule. Rendering it as "kingship" preserves the direct connection to "king" while reflecting the feminine singular noun form (absolute or construct) indicated by the morphology. |
