SIBI-P1 Translation H3734-03
large dry-measures
| Morphological Notes | Noun, masculine plural, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The plural masculine absolute form denotes multiple units of the כֹּר, a large excavated-style vessel used as a standardized dry measure. "Large dry-measures" preserves both the container-origin sense (from a hollowed vessel) and its function as a capacity unit, while reflecting the plural morphology. |
