| Morphological Notes | Noun, common, singular, construct; prefixed בַּ־ ("in the"); gender attested as both masculine and feminine in usage. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun חָצֵר denotes an enclosed or fenced-in space derived from the root meaning "to enclose." The prefixed בַּ־ adds the sense "in the" (preposition ב with definite article), and the singular construct form retains the idea of a defined enclosed area. |
