young male attendant

Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun in the absolute state; no pronominal suffix; lexical form נַעַר (naʿar).
Rendering RationaleThe noun נַעַר is masculine singular absolute (HNcmsa), so the rendering reflects a single male individual. The term denotes a youth in the stage of active development and, by extension, a young male who serves or attends; "young male attendant" preserves both the idea of youth (root sense of active stirring) and the social role often implied.
