SIBI-P1 H5439-05
encircling-around
| Morphological Notes | Common noun, masculine singular absolute (HNcbsa). Though morphologically a noun meaning "circle" or "surrounding area," it most often functions adverbially to mean "around" or "on every side." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun סָבִיב derives from the root סבב, "to turn or encircle," and functions adverbially to denote that which surrounds or is all around. Rendering it as "encircling-around" preserves the circular, surrounding force of the root while reflecting its common singular absolute noun form (HNcbsa) used adverbially. |
