SIBI-P1 H2691-21
the enclosed-court
| Morphological Notes | Noun common singular absolute with prefixed definite article (הַ/הֶ). The noun is grammatically common gender (used as masculine or feminine in Hebrew), here singular and definite. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun חָצֵר derives from the root חצר, meaning "to enclose" or "to surround." Rendering it as "the enclosed-court" preserves the core idea of a space defined by enclosure while reflecting the definite article ("the") and the singular absolute form indicated by the morphology (HTd/Ncbsa). |
