SIBI-P1 H8441-18

a detested thing

Morphological NotesFeminine singular noun, absolute state (HNcfsa). Though morphologically related to an active participle of תעב, it functions substantivally as a noun denoting that which is abhorred.
Rendering RationaleThe noun derives from the root תעב, "to abhor" or "to detest," and functions as a feminine singular noun in the absolute state (HNcfsa). Rendering it "a detested thing" preserves the participial sense of something that is actively regarded with abhorrence while reflecting its singular feminine form.
