sho.rer denotes a body part in the lone attested comparison, though the translation does not retain it.

The sole attestation uses the construct-form noun within a poetic bodily comparison in Song of Songs 7:3, but the translation does not preserve the term's specific contribution.

Senses in use

  1. A body part in a poetic comparison · dominant

    In Song of Songs 7:3, the masculine singular construct form occurs in a poetic description of the addressee's body. The APB renders the verse, "Your two breasts are like two fawns, the twins of a gazelle," without isolating this noun's contribution.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Song of Songs 7:3, the APB presents a bodily comparison—"Your two breasts are like two fawns, the twins of a gazelle"—but, as a whole-verse translation, it does not clearly identify an English rendering for this noun.
