SIBI-P1 H4701-03

a wound turban

Morphological NotesCommon feminine singular noun in the absolute state; the prefixed מ (mem) forms a noun of instrument or result—"that which is wrapped." No pronominal suffix.
Rendering RationaleThe noun derives from the root צנף, "to wrap or wind," and denotes something that has been wound around the head. Rendering it as "a wound turban" preserves the passive/resultative sense of something wrapped while accurately reflecting the feminine singular absolute form (HNcfsa).
