פּרכת

The term appears to be technical jargon for a specific device used in the tabernacle.

Most translations render it as “veil”. It might be based on the root per and may be related to pered

This word is a good example of diacritics, with no less than 15 different diacritic spellings for its mere 23 instances. The spelling inconsistencies of this word are a good example of why diacritics can't be trusted to create a consistent pattern of vowel sounds.
