fifth
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, ordinal number; feminine singular, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | This is the feminine singular absolute ordinal form derived from the root meaning "five." The rendering "fifth" preserves the core numerical sense while reflecting its ordinal function; in English, ordinal numbers are not gender-marked, though the Hebrew form is feminine. |
