SIBI-P1 Translation H6341-11
and spread-out snare
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular common noun, absolute state, prefixed with conjunction ו ("and"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun פַּח denotes something beaten or spread out flat from the root פחח, extended to a trap laid out to ensnare. "Spread-out snare" preserves both the metalworking origin (flattened/spread object) and its developed sense as a trapping device, while the prefixed ו is rendered as "and." |
