SIBI-P1 H7540-02
she who is springing about
| Morphological Notes | Piel participle, feminine singular absolute form from רָקַד; the Piel stem intensifies the action, conveying lively, repeated, or exuberant movement. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root רקד conveys vigorous stamping or springing about in exuberance. The form מְרַקֵּדָה is a feminine singular participle (Piel stem), indicating an ongoing or characteristic action, so "she who is springing about" preserves both the intensive nuance of the stem and the feminine singular morphology. |
