| Semantic Range | villages, hamlets, tent-settlements, encampments, rural habitations |
| Conceptual Significance | The "tent-villages of Jair" refers to a network of clan-based settlements in Bashan, highlighting Israel’s tribal expansion and the semi-nomadic to settled transition in the Transjordan. The term preserves the memory of early Israelite settlement patterns rooted in tent-community life. |
| Morphological Notes | Common feminine plural noun in the construct state (HNcfpc), from the singular חַוָּה. The construct form links it directly to the following proper noun (יָעִיר, Jair). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun חַוֺּת is a feminine plural construct form of חַוָּה, meaning a tent-settlement or village. Rendering it as "tent-villages of" preserves the concrete sense of clustered encampments and reflects the feminine plural construct state, which grammatically requires a following genitive ("of Jair"). |
