SIBI-P1 H6224-02
tenth-part of
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew adjective, ordinal, feminine singular construct (HAofsc); from עֲשִׂירִי ("tenth"), here functioning substantivally to denote a tenth portion in relation to another noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | The term derives from the root עשר ("ten") and is the feminine singular ordinal in construct form. Rendering it as "tenth-part of" preserves the numerical sense of "ten" while reflecting its feminine singular construct morphology, which grammatically requires a following noun ("of"). |
