1. dish, plate, bowl — The noun qe'arah denotes a dish, plate, or shallow bowl used for food service and tabernacle offerings. All four clusters represent the same concrete vessel referent in singular construct (dish-of), plural construct (its-dishes), definite plural (the-dishes), and absolute plural (dishes-of). Multilingual glosses converge: Arabic sahnu/suhun (صَحْن/صُحون), Spanish fuente/platos, Hindi thali/thaliyan (थाली/थालियाँ), Korean jeopsi (접시/접시들), and Swahili sahani throughout. The only variation is grammatical number and definiteness, not semantic content. 17×
