days

Rootיום (y-w-m)
Core Meaningsday, daylight, time period, occasion, lifespan
Semantic Rangeliteral days, periods of time, lifetime, extended antiquity, temporal duration
Conceptual SignificanceIn Biblical Aramaic, notably in the title "Ancient of Days" (Daniel 7), "days" conveys the idea of immeasurable antiquity and enduring existence. The plural intensifies the concept of time, emphasizing fullness of days and eternal duration.
Morphological NotesAramaic common masculine plural noun from יוֹם (yôwm). The ending ־ַיָּא (-ayyāʾ) marks the masculine plural emphatic/determined state in Biblical Aramaic. Occurs in construct (e.g., "Ancient of Days") and absolute emphatic forms.
Rendering RationaleThe form יוֹמַיָּא is the Aramaic masculine plural (determined/emphatic state) of יוֹם, meaning "day." Rendering it as "days" preserves the plural number indicated by the morphology (ANcmpd/Td; ANp/Td) and reflects the core temporal sense of the root without abstraction. In construct contexts, it functions as "of days," but the lexical value remains "days."
