bound-vestibule-of

Morphological Notes	Masculine singular noun in construct state; one attested form includes a 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix ("their").
Rendering Rationale	The noun is masculine singular in the construct state (HNcmsc), indicating "vestibule/porch of" something. Rendering it as "bound-vestibule-of" preserves the architectural sense while reflecting the root idea of something bound or attached to a larger structure, and the construct form is conveyed by the trailing "-of."
