seagoing ships
| Morphological Notes | Masculine plural common noun, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun צִי denotes a large maritime vessel; the plural masculine absolute form צִיִּים is therefore rendered "seagoing ships," preserving both number and its specific reference to ocean-going craft rather than small boats. |
