to which, to whom, to what

Morphological NotesThe word consists of the preposition לַ (lə, 'to/for') prefixed to the primitive relative pronoun אֲשֶׁר (ʼăsher). The morphology code HR/Tr indicates a relative pronoun with preposition. As an indeclinable word, אֲשֶׁר does not inflect for gender, number, or person, though it can be accompanied by personal pronouns to clarify reference. The 23 occurrences in the corpus show consistent use as a relative connector.
Rendering RationaleThe form לַ/אֲשֶׁר combines the preposition לַ (to/for) with the primitive relative pronoun אֲשֶׁר. Since אֲשֶׁר is indeclinable and functions as a relative pronoun of every gender and number, the rendering preserves this grammatical neutrality while the preposition לַ establishes the relational connection. The faithful rendering 'to which/whom/what' captures both the root's semantic function as a marker of relationship and its role as a connector between clauses.
