| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ + masculine singular proper noun (name) from the root חמם. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is a masculine singular proper name derived from the root חמם (“to be hot, become warm”). Rendering it as “Hot-One” preserves the root sense of heat while reflecting its use as a personal name, with the prefixed conjunction “and.” |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
and warm
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | The verb is jussive for purpose (so that she may warm), but as a single word rendering, 'and warm' is proper. P1 'and Hot-One' is incorrect here; it is not a noun. |
