shave

56:83

فَلَوْلَآ إِذَا بَلَغَتِ ٱلْحُلْقُومَ

Alternative: shave

Research rendering: throat

Substitution fails here: shave would impose the first unit's predicate on a segment whose frozen form and Quran-internal construction require throat. This is the concrete contradiction supporting the lexeme partition.
