SIBI-P1 H2572-09

and five-tens

Morphological NotesConjunction וְ ("and") prefixed to a masculine plural absolute cardinal number; derived from חָמֵשׁ ("five"), indicating a multiple of ten (50).
Rendering RationaleThe noun חֲמִשִּׁים is the masculine plural cardinal form derived from the root meaning "five," literally denoting "five tens." Rendering it as "five-tens" preserves its transparent derivation from "five" while accurately reflecting its masculine plural absolute form with the prefixed conjunction "and."
