Depends on context for 'cubitum'.
1. Past participle of verb 'cubo' - to lie down, recline, be in bed, etc.
2. Elbow, forearm
3. Unit of length (based on length of forearm) -about 17 1/2 inches.
4. The state of lying down, reclining, etc.
Pick the one that fits.
For 'ierunt' - syncopated form of 'iverunt', Means:
They went, they walked, they advanced, etc.

cubitum = elbow or cubit (as in the measure of length)

Could ierunt be a form of ire, "to go"?

please give the context.
cubitum could be elbow, forearm (cubitus, -i) or it could be the supine of cubo, which means recline, lay down.
ierunt (eo, ire "to go") THEY WENT. Perfect, Active, 3rd person plural, Indicative
