SIBI-P1 H4570-03
in their circular tracks
| Morphological Notes | Preposition בְּ ("in") + masculine plural construct noun מַעְגְּלוֹת + 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix ("their"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The 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." |
