the night
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic noun, common masculine singular, determined (emphatic) state. The -ָא ending marks definiteness in Biblical Aramaic. |
| Rendering Rationale | The term לֵילְיָא is the Aramaic masculine singular noun in the determined (emphatic) state, indicated by the ending -ָא. Rendering it as "the night" preserves both its singular masculine form and its definite force, while retaining the core sense of the root ליל, referring to the period of darkness. |
