SIBI-P1 Translation H5602-02
the deep basin
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular common noun, absolute state, with prefixed definite article (הַ). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun denotes a vessel characterized by depth, likely derived from a root meaning "to hollow out" or "to deepen." Rendering it as "the deep basin" preserves both the inferred root sense and the definite masculine singular form with the article. |
