SIBI-P1 H6921-05

front-east

Morphological NotesMasculine singular noun in the absolute state, derived from the root קדם (q-d-m). Functions as a directional or locative noun and can also denote the east wind by extension.
Rendering RationaleThe noun is masculine singular absolute (HNcmsa), so it is rendered as a singular concrete noun. "Front-east" preserves the root sense of קדם (that which is before or in front) while reflecting the ancient Hebrew orientation in which the east is the "front" direction.
