         DefinitionShort: to grind grain in a mill

         Glosses: to grind grain

         Comments: In {S:04201703500006} and also in {S:04002404100004} the reference is evidently to a hand mill, which was normally operated by two women working together. In societies in which such mills are not known, translators have frequently substituted the process of pounding grain by means of a mortar and pestle.
