Subdued-One
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew proper noun (masculine singular); no pronominal suffix; used for both the individual (son of Ham) and the land/people associated with him. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name כְּנַעַן (Kᵉnaʿan) is a masculine singular proper noun derived from the root כנע, meaning "to be humbled" or "subdued." Rendering it as "Subdued-One" preserves both the singular masculine form and the underlying root sense, while recognizing it as a personal and territorial name. |
