and outside areas
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ + masculine plural absolute noun common from חוּץ. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun חוּצוֹת is the masculine plural absolute of חוּץ, denoting spaces separated from an interior or enclosed domain. Rendering it as "outside areas" preserves the root idea of severed or exterior space, and the prefixed וְ is reflected by "and." |
