***************GIRSA SECTION********************
[1] Rashi 74b DH Hashta [at the end of the page]: 1) [line 2] KOTESH - to pulverize; e.g. to pound wheat in a mortar and pestle to remove the husk 2) [line 8] BORER U'MENI'ACH - he may separate the desirable items from undesirable ones (or vice versa) in a mixture and put them aside for later 3) [line 19] KANON - a reed basket or pan which is wide at one end and narrow at the other end which is used to remove the outer shell of beans. As the beans slip through the pan the waste gets caught.
4) [line 19] TAMCHUY - a plate or tray 8) [line 32] NACHMANI - Abaye; (a) Rabah Bar Nachmani, who raised Abaye as an orphan, gave him this name in memory of his own father (RASHI Gitin 34b); (b) According to the Ga'onim, Abaye's real name was Nachmani, but Rabah Bar Nachmani, who was his uncle, called him Abaye so as not to utter his father's name, out of respect for his father (Abaye is a corrupted form of the Aramaic word for "my father") (ARUCH, Erech Abaye, also cited by Gilyon ha'Shas in Gitin ibid.) 9) [line 37] SHABATA D'RAV BIVI HAVAI - it was the Shabbos that was Rav Bivi's turn to wait on the Talmidim
10) [line 37] IKLA'U - came, visited
13) [line 1] SHALKI LEI - they boil them
15) [line 2] MASRACH - it spoils
18) [line 6] KAPID A'MISHCHESA - he is careful to cut them to size
20) [line 12] LI'SHRUREI MANA - to strengthen the utensil 30) [line 26] CHACHMAH YESEIRAH - an unusual craft which requires exceptional skill (lit. additional wisdom)
31) [line 26] KANAF - a large wing feather 36) [line 32] KITREI - (a) that are tied, knotted; (b) [according to the Girsa of Tosfos 73a DH ha'Kosher and the Bach here (#3)] knots 37) [line 32] SHARI CHAD V'KATAR CHAD - (a) he unties one of them and leaves the other one tied (RASHI); (b) he unties the two knots, throws out the length of thread that was in between them, and ties the remaining two ends together, leaving one knot (TOSFOS 73a DH ha'Kosher, citing RABEINU CHANANEL) *38*) [line 33] LIFNEI BASAR V'DAM EIN OSIN KEN - For a king of flesh and blood one does not undo parallel knots in the weave *after* the garment is completed. Doing so would require that one of the knots would remain untied, leaving a slight hole in the fabric. Rather, the knot would be untied *during* the weaving process, which would enable substituting a new thread or thread fragment for the knotted one without leaving a hole at all (RASHI). Alternatively, one does not fix royal garments; rather one sells such garments to non-royal customers, who wear "mended" garments (Inferred from TOSFOS 73a DH ha'Kosher, according to RABEINU CHANANEL)
