SIBI-P1 Translation H1554-01
Heaps
| Morphological Notes | Noun, masculine plural, absolute state; plural form of גל used as a place name. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is masculine plural absolute from גל (gal), meaning a heap, mound, wave, or spring. Rendering it as "Heaps" preserves both the plural morphology and the core image of piled or rising formations that underlies the toponym. |
