خصي

(in translations of ancient texts) A man who is not inclined to marry and procreate.

Examples :

"In some ancient courts, a powerful official might be described in translated texts as a "eunuch," suggesting he was not expected to marry or have children, allowing him to focus solely on his duties to the emperor. "

في بعض المحاكم القديمة، قد يوصف مسؤول قوي في النصوص المترجمة بأنه "خصي"، مما يشير إلى أنه لم يكن متوقعًا منه الزواج أو إنجاب الأطفال، مما سمح له بالتركيز فقط على واجباته تجاه الإمبراطور.
