SIBI-P1 H705-05
and four-tens
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ ("and") prefixed to a masculine plural cardinal numeral in the absolute state. Form אַרְבָּעִים is the standard masculine form for "forty." |
| Rendering Rationale | The term derives from the root ארבע ("four") and is the masculine plural cardinal form meaning "forty," literally "four tens." Rendering it as "four-tens" preserves the transparent connection to the root "four," while the prefixed conjunction וְ is reflected by "and." The plural cardinal form is maintained in the compound English expression. |
