Morphological NotesConjunction וְ (waw) prefixed to the adverbial particle אַף; classified as Hebrew Conjunction + Discourse/Adverbial particle (HC/D). Indeclinable, with no gender, number, or person marking.
Rendering RationaleThe particle אַף carries the sense of addition or intensification, extending a statement further—originally linked to the idea of "nose/breath" and by extension "anger" or heightened force. With the prefixed conjunction וְ (“and”), the form וְאַף functions as a conjunctive adverb meaning "and indeed also," preserving both the additive and emphatic force inherent in the root.
