Morphological NotesPreposition בְּ ("in") + masculine plural construct noun מַעְגְּלוֹת + 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix ("their").
Rendering RationaleThe noun מַעְגָּל derives from the root עגל, conveying roundness or circular movement. Rendering it as "circular tracks" preserves this root sense of encircling or rounded pathways. The plural construct form with the 3mp suffix is reflected in "their," and the prefixed בְּ is expressed by "in."
