-Based on the root word [[sen]], the most likely meaning of 'Senim' is "the Toothy Ones"+Based on the root word [[sen]], the literal meaning of 'Senim' is "teeth" or "the Toothy Ones". However, this appears to be an idiom whose actual meaning is "years". This is interesting since the closely related word, [[seneh]] does appear to mean a time period, possibly a year. Therefore it seems likely that 'senim' may be a misspelling and shortening of [[senehim]]. 
  
-The Senim are mentioned 399 times in the ancient Hebrew texts.+'senim' should not be confused (but often is)((Notably in Genesis 6 and 7)) with [[seni]] (meaning "two")
