The word for that kind of stable in Hebrew is אורוה[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/יציב-#.m4a” /].

מגרש… The generic word in Hebrew for field is שָׂדֶה (sah-DEH). However, the word used for soccer/football field, tennis court, etc. is (meeg-RAHSH). It’s the same word used to mean a plot of land.
