SIBI-P1 Translation H339-10
distant coastlands
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common, masculine plural, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The plural masculine absolute form אִיִּים denotes multiple maritime or transmarine regions. "Distant coastlands" reflects the noun’s semantic range of remote coastal or island territories, preserving its geographic sense rather than the outdated gloss "heaps." |
