cycles of seven
| Morphological Notes | Masculine common noun, plural, construct state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root meaning "to be seven" and denotes a fixed unit made up of seven. The plural construct form requires a plural rendering, expressed here as "cycles of seven" to preserve the root sense without limiting it to days or years. |
