SIBI-P1 H3961-01

and a tongue

Morphological NotesAramaic common masculine singular noun in the absolute state, with prefixed conjunction וְ (“and”). No definite article; singular form.
Rendering RationaleThe noun לִשָּׁן (Aramaic) derives from the root meaning "tongue" and by extension "speech" or "language." The form is masculine singular absolute with a prefixed conjunction וְ (“and”), so the rendering "and a tongue" preserves both the singular grammatical form and the concrete root imagery from which the broader sense of language or nation arises.
