SIBI-P1 H8165-02
from Rough-Seir
| Morphological Notes | Preposition מִן ("from") prefixed to a masculine singular proper noun (Np). The noun שֵׂעִיר is a place name formed from the adjectival pattern meaning "hairy/rough." |
| Rendering Rationale | The name שֵׂעִיר derives from the root שׂער, meaning "hairy" or "rough," likely describing the rugged, bristling terrain of the region. The prefixed מִן ("from") is preserved in the rendering, and the singular proper noun is retained while making its root sense explicit as "Rough-Seir." |
