| Morphological Notes | Feminine singular common noun, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun דּוּמִיָּה derives from the semantic stream of דמה meaning "to be silent" or "to cease," denoting a state of quiet or cessation of sound. As a feminine singular abstract noun in the absolute state, "stillness" captures the state or condition inherent in the form. |
