SIBI-P1 H5521-08

sheltering booths

Morphological NotesFeminine plural absolute noun (סֻכָּה → סֻכּוֹת). In some contexts used as a proper noun (place name "Succoth"), but morphologically a common feminine plural form.
Rendering RationaleThe noun סֻכּוֹת is the feminine plural absolute form of סֻכָּה, derived from the root סכך meaning "to cover" or "to shelter." Rendering it as "sheltering booths" preserves both the concrete image of temporary structures and the root sense of protective covering, while accurately reflecting the feminine plural morphology.
