SIBI-P1 Translation H7163-01

Horn-of-Antimony

Morphological NotesProper name, feminine singular; compound noun formed from קֶרֶן + הַפּוּךְ with definite article assimilated in the second element.
Rendering RationaleThis proper name preserves the compound meaning of קֶרֶן (horn) and פּוּךְ (antimony/eye cosmetic), literally referring to a horn-shaped container for cosmetic pigment. Rendering it as "Horn-of-Antimony" maintains both root elements and the concrete imagery underlying the name.
