Almon-toward-Diblathaim
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun, compound toponym with prefixed preposition בְּ ("in/at") in the surface form; includes directional suffix indicating movement or orientation toward Diblathaim. |
| Rendering Rationale | This is a compound proper name combining Almon (from עלם, "hidden") with Diblathaim (from דבל, related to "fig-cakes") and an enclitic directional element meaning "toward." The rendering preserves the directional morphology and treats the form strictly as a toponym. |
