Memukan
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular proper noun of Persian origin; occurs three times in Esther 1. No Hebrew verbal stem or derivational morphology applies. |
| Rendering Rationale | The term is a masculine singular proper noun (HNp) referring to a specific Persian official in the book of Esther. As a foreign name of uncertain etymology, the most faithful rendering is a direct transliteration, preserving its identity and grammatical singular masculine reference. |
