loftiness

Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun in the absolute state; derived from the verbal root גאה (“to rise, be high, be exalted”).
Rendering RationaleThe noun is masculine singular absolute (HNcmsa), so it is rendered as a singular abstract noun. “Loftiness” preserves the root idea of rising or being high (גאה), capturing both literal elevation and metaphorical exaltation or pride inherent in the term.
