skin-affliction

Morphological NotesCommon feminine singular noun in the absolute state (HNcfsa). No article or suffix; functions as a singular abstract/condition noun.
Rendering RationaleThe noun צָרַעַת is a feminine singular absolute form derived from the verbal root צרע, "to strike with a skin affliction." Rendering it as "skin-affliction" preserves the connection to the root idea of being struck or marked with a diseased condition, while accurately reflecting its singular feminine noun form.
