from (the) city-of

Morphological NotesFeminine singular noun in construct state (קִרְיַת) with prefixed preposition מִן (assimilated with dagesh forte). In some occurrences treated as a proper noun (e.g., Kiriath), functioning as a place name.
Rendering RationaleThe noun קִרְיָה is feminine singular, here in the construct state with the prefixed preposition מִן ("from"), yielding "from (the) city-of" to reflect both the construct relationship and feminine singular form. This preserves the sense of a settled place—originally a place of meeting or occurrence—while accurately representing the morphology (Ncfsc with prefixed preposition).
