dangling ones
| Morphological Notes | Feminine plural adjective, absolute state, from דַּלָּה. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is feminine plural from דַּלָּה, derived from the root דלה (“to hang down, dangle”). Rendering it as “dangling ones” preserves the concrete root image while reflecting the feminine plural morphology. |
