The KJV renders 4 different Hebrew and Greek words as “hill”

What it means

a hillock

feminine from the same as H1387 (גֶּבַע);

How the KJV renders it

hill, little hill

Where that flattens a distinction

The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.

hill
also renders óros (G3735), bounós (G1015), har (H2022)
