SIBI-P1 Translation H4584-03
and Dwelling-place
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וּ + masculine singular noun of place functioning as a proper name. |
| Rendering Rationale | מָעוֹן is a noun of place derived from the root meaning "to dwell," denoting a habitation or residence. The prefixed וּ is the conjunction "and," so the rendering preserves both the morphology and the root-based sense of a dwelling-place, even when used as a proper name. |
