winnowed grain
| Morphological Notes | Noun, masculine singular, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from ברר, "to purify or separate by winnowing," and denotes grain that has been cleansed and selected from chaff. "Winnowed grain" preserves the root idea of purification and reflects the masculine singular absolute form as a simple noun. |
