And if you really need to discuss the regional flat-bottomed pots in your {vutpa'} ... (IMO, HQ 8.3:2): The word for bottom, the counterpart of {yor}, is {pIrmuS}. This word refers to the underside of something, not the interior bottom (such as the bottom of a well or the bottom of a bowl where a few drops of milk remain after eating cereal). The word for the interior bottom of something is {bIS'ub}. If an item is located in the bottom of a box, it is located in the box's {bIS'ub}. If something is found underneath a box, it is found beneath the box's {pIrmuS}. Cf. also {Sep} "region" (n) and {beQ} "be flat" (v).

CULTURE NOTES: (KGT 97): The general term for a pot is {'un}. Pots that may be put on top of a fire in order to heat their contents are made of metal ({baS}); others may be made of either metal or ceramic material ({nagh} [literally, "stone"]). A {bargh} is probably the most frequently used pot. It is rather large and has a flattened bottom. The smaller {nevDagh} is characterized by its V-shaped handles, termed {DeSqIvDu'} ...
