and sixty
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ ("and") prefixed to a masculine plural absolute cardinal number (שִׁשִּׁים). Functions adjectivally to quantify masculine nouns. |
| Rendering Rationale | The term derives from the root שׁשׁ ("six") and is the masculine plural form used for the cardinal number "sixty" (six tens). The prefixed conjunction וְ adds "and," and the masculine plural absolute form aligns with masculine counted nouns in Hebrew usage. |
