Bitter One
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular proper noun; the -ִי ending functions as a gentilicial or relational formation from the root מרר, used here as a personal name. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name מְרָרִי (Mᵉrârîy) derives from the root מרר (m-r-r), meaning "to be bitter" or "to make bitter." As a masculine singular proper noun (HNp), the rendering "Bitter One" preserves both the root sense and the singular masculine form of the name. |
