SIBI-P1 H5439-10
encirclings
| Morphological Notes | Feminine plural common noun in the absolute state (סְבִיבוֹת), from סָבִיב (masculine) / סְבִיבָה (feminine). Functions substantivally to denote surrounding areas or regions. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root סבב (“to turn, surround, encircle”), and the feminine plural absolute form (HNcbpc) is reflected by the plural English rendering. “Encirclings” preserves the active sense of surrounding inherent in the root, rather than flattening it to the adverb “around,” while maintaining the feminine plural number. |
