cut-out bowls
| Morphological Notes | Noun, feminine plural, construct state (HNcfpc). |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering reflects the noun’s derivation from the root meaning “to cut/rend,” portraying vessels formed by hollowing or cutting out. The plural form is preserved as “bowls,” and the construct state indicates these are bowls belonging to or associated with something else. |
