1) [line 1] SHIRA'IN - silk garments
2) [line 7] AKIRAH / HANACHAH (ARBA AMOS BI'RESHUS HA'RABIM)
(a) HOTZA'AH is the last of the thirty-nine Avos Melachos of Shabbos. It
involves either 1. transferring objects from a Reshus ha'Yachid to a Reshus
ha'Rabim, 2. Hachnasah, which refers to transferring objects from a Reshus
ha'Rabim to a Reshus ha'Yachid, 3. Ma'avir Arba Amos b'Reshus ha'Rabim, or
carrying an object from one place in Reshus ha'Rabim to another over a
distance of at least four Amos, 4. Moshit, which involves *passing* an
object from one Reshus ha'Yachid to another through Reshus ha'Rabim (as
described in the Mishnah in Shabbos 96a, see Background to Shabbos 4a).
These are all biblical prohibitions.
(b) AKIRAH & HANACHAH - In order to transgress the biblical prohibition of
Hotza'ah, certain conditions must be met. An Akirah (initiation of movement)
and a Hanachah (putting the object to rest) must be performed on the object
by the same person. If one person does the Akirah and another does the
Hanachah, only a rabbinical prohibition is involved, as the Gemara states in
Shabbos 3a.
(c) One transgresses the biblical prohibition of Hotza'ah only if he picked
up the object which he moved (Akirah) with the *intention* of placing it
down again in another Reshus. If he decides to place it in another Reshus
only *after* picking it up, he has not transgressed a biblical prohibition,
and hence need not bring a Korban Chatas for atonement.

b) [last line] LAFUSH - to rest

c) [line 10] MITZ'EI - of medium size
13) [line 15] TZIDEI RESHUS HA'RABIM - an area at the side of Reshus
ha'Rabim (which is set off with pegs and large stones stuck into the ground
as a barrier so that people and wagons will not rub against the walls at the
side of Reshus ha'Rabim) which is used by the public only when Reshus
ha'Rabim is congested
