SIBI-P1 H5159-31

and inherited-portion-of

Morphological NotesConjunction וְ ("and") + noun feminine singular construct (נַחֲלַת). The construct state indicates possession, requiring a following genitive to complete the sense ("inheritance of …").
Rendering RationaleThe noun נַחֲלָה derives from the root נחל, conveying the idea of receiving or holding an allotted possession. The form is feminine singular construct with prefixed conjunction וְ, so "and inherited-portion-of" preserves the construct relationship ("-of") and the singular feminine noun while retaining the root sense of an allotted inheritance.
