SIBI-P1 H6135-02
uprooted woman
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, feminine singular absolute (HAafsa), functioning substantively to denote a woman characterized by barrenness. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root עקר conveys the idea of uprooting or being plucked up from the root. As a feminine singular adjective used substantively ("barren woman"), עֲקָרָה depicts a woman whose generative capacity is "uprooted." The rendering "uprooted woman" preserves both the root imagery and the feminine singular form. |
