SIBI-P1 H934-03

a whitening spot

Morphological NotesCommon feminine singular noun in the absolute state (HNcfsa), derived from an active participial form related to בָּהִיר (bright). Used substantively to denote a single bright/white patch.
Rendering RationaleThe noun derives from the root בהר, "to be bright/white," and is formed as a feminine singular active participle used substantively. Rendering it as "a whitening spot" preserves the participial sense of something actively exhibiting brightness/whiteness while reflecting the feminine singular absolute form (a single spot).
