1. bulls, cattle (Aramaic) — Aramaic plural noun תּוֹרִין meaning bulls or cattle, used in Daniel for the beasts of the field that Nebuchadnezzar lived among. All translations converge on bovine livestock: Spanish 'bueyes/toros' (oxen/bulls), Arabic 'الثِّيرَانِ/ثِيران' (bulls), Hindi 'बैलों/बछड़े' (oxen/calves), Korean '소들/황소들' (cattle/bulls), Swahili 'ng'ombe' (cattle). The two clusters differ only in prepositional framing—'like cattle' (comparative) versus bare 'bulls'—not in the referent, which is consistently bovine animals. 7×
