SIBI-P1 H2008-01

these (feminine) here

Morphological NotesDemonstrative form derived from the deictic particle הן. Used as a demonstrative adverb (HD) meaning “here/there,” and also as a 3rd person feminine plural pronoun (HPp3fp), referring to feminine plural antecedents. The doubled נ marks the extended demonstrative form.
Rendering RationaleThe form הֵנָּה functions either as a demonstrative adverb (“here/there”) or as a 3rd person feminine plural pronoun. Rendering it as "these (feminine) here" preserves its deictic force of pointing out and, where morphologically marked as HPp3fp, accurately reflects feminine plural reference. The wording keeps the sense of spatial or situational immediacy inherent in the particle הן.
