Say! (you, masculine singular)
| Root | אמר (ʾ-m-r) |
| Core Meanings | speech, utterance, declaration, saying, command |
| Semantic Range | to say, speak, utter, declare, command, promise, report, think (inward speech), name, appoint |
| Conceptual Significance | אָמַר is the primary Hebrew verb of speech and is foundational in biblical narrative and theology, introducing divine revelation ("And YHWH said") and human response. It frames covenantal communication, prophetic proclamation, and the performative power of spoken word in Israel’s understanding of reality. |
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew verb, Qal stem, imperative, 2nd person masculine singular. A direct command to a single male addressee. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root אמר fundamentally denotes the act of speaking or uttering words. The form אֱמָר is Qal imperative, second masculine singular, so the rendering reflects a direct command addressed to one male individual: "Say!" The added grammatical note preserves the masculine singular force present in the Hebrew form. |
