Translation talk:Mishnah/Seder Moed/Tractate Eruvin/Chapter 1/10/Translation

Since I left a blank word in my translation just now I want to explain why - I don't know what the word ערב means in this context. It usually means "evening", but clearly in this context that makes no sense. It must have a second meaning of which I am unaware, and the online dictionary I found was of no help. If anyone has a better idea please fill in the blank, just don't put in the word evening. --Bachrach44 (talk) 19:23, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Never mind, I looked it up in Kehati (yes, I cheated, sorry). The best translation is "warp" and "weft", but since I don't think people know what those are, I used "vertical" and "horizontal". --Bachrach44 (talk) 19:30, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
