many (feminine plural)
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, feminine plural, absolute state; from רַב (rab). |
| Rendering Rationale | The form רַבּוֹת is the feminine plural absolute of רַב, expressing greatness in number or magnitude. Rendering it as "many" preserves the quantitative sense of multiplicity inherent in the root רבב while reflecting its feminine plural form. |
