haddah
ʻÊyn Chaddâh is a toponym designating a specific location known as 'Spring of Chaddah' or 'Spring of Sharpness.' The name combines the word for a natural spring (water source) with a secondary element derived from a root connoting sharpness or keen quality. The term thus refers to a geographic site identified by the presence of a spring, with an epithet likely referring to a distinctive characteristic of the spring's water, terrain, or local feature.
