SIBI-P1 H5762-01
Ruin-Place
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun, singular (place name). No pronominal suffix. The form עֲוִית reflects a nominal formation from the root עוה, functioning as a toponym. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name derives from the root עוה (ʿ-w-h), which conveys the idea of twisting, distortion, or ruin. As a singular proper noun (HNp), it denotes a specific location; rendering it "Ruin-Place" preserves the singular form and reflects the underlying root sense embedded in the place name. |
