SIBI-P1 Translation H5291-01
in young women of
| Morphological Notes | Preposition ב + noun, feminine plural construct (from נַעֲרָה). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun נַעֲרָה derives from the root נער, denoting youthfulness. The feminine plural construct form נַעֲרוֹת indicates "young women of," and the prefixed ב preposition adds the sense "in," preserving both number and construct state. |
