| Morphological Notes | Noun, feminine singular, construct state; abstract/result noun from חצה indicating a divided portion. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun denotes the result of dividing—one of two equal parts. The construct state (feminine singular) requires a relational sense, thus "half of" to reflect its bound form. |
