SIBI-P1 H3515-02

weighty

Morphological NotesAdjective, masculine singular absolute form from the root כבד. Used predicatively or attributively to describe something as heavy, burdensome, severe, or significant.
Rendering RationaleThe adjective is masculine singular absolute (HAamsa), so the rendering reflects a singular descriptive quality. "Weighty" preserves the core root idea of heaviness (כבד) while allowing for both literal heaviness and figurative senses such as importance, severity, or honor, all of which derive from the concept of weight.
