three-tens

Morphological NotesMasculine plural absolute cardinal number (HAcbpa), from שָׁלוֹשׁ (three), functioning adjectivally or substantivally to denote the number thirty; occasionally used in an ordinal sense ("thirtieth") by context.
Rendering RationaleThe form שְׁלֹשִׁים is the masculine plural cardinal number built from the root שלש ("three"). Rendering it as "three-tens" preserves its transparent derivation from "three" while accurately conveying the masculine plural cardinal sense of "thirty."
