1. slopes/ravines — The noun 'slopes' or 'ravines' (אֲשֵׁדָה), referring to the sloping terrain or watershed areas in geographic descriptions of the Promised Land, particularly the slopes of Pisgah and similar topographic features in the Transjordan region. Multilingual evidence is consistent: eng 'slopes of/the slopes', spa 'laderas de/las laderas', hin 'ढलानों/ढलानें', arb 'سُفُوحِ/السُّفوحِ', kor '비탈', swa 'miteremko'. The two clusters differ only in grammatical framing — construct-state 'slopes of' vs. article-marked 'the slopes' with prepositions — representing the same geographic-topographic concept. 6×
