### Brown–Driver–Briggs 1906

**The whole BDB entry:** n.\[m.\] meaning dubious; only in תְּנוּ־צִיץ לְמוֹאָב Je 48:9 usually (after AW Ra Ki al.) wings (coll.) (cf. Aramaic צִיץ wing, fin, Thes Gf al.);\* cf. PerlesAnal. 46, who reads נוֹצִיץ (wing-) feathers (as in Aramaic); 𝔊 σημεια, whence Gie sing-post, reading צִיּוּן,—or נֵס,—(indicating flight).

Why these entries: BDB: headword, part of speech agrees, 1 of its verses cited, 0 words shared with the glosses (6 candidates); OSHB: headword, part of speech agrees, 1 words shared with the BDB entry, 0 with the glosses (5 candidates)
