SIBI-P1 H2298-05

one (feminine singular)

Rootחד (ḥ-d)
Core Meaningsoneness, singularity, unity, firstness
Semantic Rangeone, single, a certain, first, once, together (in some adverbial uses)
Conceptual SignificanceAs the basic numeral expressing unity and singularity, this term underscores the concept of oneness or a single entity within the Aramaic portions of Scripture (e.g., Daniel, Ezra), often marking distinct identity, singular events, or unified action.
Morphological NotesAramaic adjective/cardinal numeral, feminine singular absolute (HAafsa). Corresponds to Hebrew אֶחָד but in Imperial Aramaic form חַד; agrees in gender with a feminine noun.
Rendering RationaleThe form חַדָּה is the feminine singular absolute of the Aramaic numeral/adjective חַד (“one”). Rendering it as “one (feminine singular)” preserves the core idea of singularity while explicitly reflecting the feminine grammatical form indicated by the morphology.
