1)[line 2]ùàéï îåðéï éîéí ìùðéíSHE'EIN MONIN YAMIM L'SHANIM - we do not add "days" to a [lunar] year [in order to make it complete]

(a)When we add days to a lunar year in order to synchronize the lunar 354-day year with the solar 365-day year, we wait until enough years pass that it is necessary to add a full leap month to the year (and then we add a second Adar that year). We do not add 11 days to each lunar year so as to match it to the solar year (ROSH and TOSFOS in Nazir 7a).

(b)Alternatively, if a person vows to abstain from wine for a year, he abstains for twelve or thirteen lunar months (depending on whether or not it is a leap year). He does not abstain for the length of a solar year, 365 days (about 12.35 lunar months) (ROSH ibid, RASHI Megilah 5a).

7)[line 8]ããøéù ìéùðà éúéøàD'DARISH LISHNA YESEIRA - he makes inferences based on superfluous usage

If a person could have expressed himself briefly, and instead expresses himself with unnecessary additions, we establish that he intends to add something to his statement with his verbosity.

b)[line 10]äãåúHA'DUS- the pit in the ground that is lined with stones that rise above the surface of the ground. A Dus also has a cover on top (BI'UR HALACHAH Orach Chayim 587:1 in his explanation of the opinions of Rashi and Rambam).
