legal judgment
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common, masculine singular, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root דין (“to judge, govern”) and denotes the act, process, or result of judging. "Legal judgment" preserves the formal judicial sense inherent in the root and reflects the masculine singular absolute form as a standalone legal term. |
