Core Meanings	preciousness, value, worth, honor, dignity
Semantic Range	preciousness, costliness, wealth, honor, dignity, glory, splendor
Conceptual Significance	In Biblical Aramaic contexts (e.g., Daniel), יְקָר often denotes royal honor, splendor, or bestowed dignity, highlighting the visible manifestation of status and esteem—whether granted by earthly kings or by the Most High.
Morphological Notes	Aramaic noun, common masculine singular, determined (emphatic) state with prefixed conjunction וְ (“and”). The -ָא ending marks the emphatic/definite state in Biblical Aramaic.
Rendering Rationale	The noun יְקָר derives from the root יקר, expressing preciousness and high value. As a masculine singular noun in the determined (emphatic) state with prefixed conjunction וְ, it is rendered "and the precious-worth," preserving both its definiteness and its core sense of valued dignity or honor.
