SIBI-P1 Translation H7950-08
snow
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common, masculine singular, construct state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The masculine singular noun directly denotes the natural phenomenon of snow, preserving the root שלג which refers specifically to frozen precipitation and, by implication, whiteness. As a construct singular form, it retains its basic nominal sense without altering its core meaning. |
