SIBI-P1 H4437-10
the kingship
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic common feminine singular noun in the determined state (מַלְכוּתָא). The -ת ending forms an abstract noun ("kingship"), and the final -ָא marks the determined/emphatic state, equivalent to the definite article "the." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root מלך ("to reign, be king") and denotes the abstract or concrete exercise of royal rule. Rendering it "the kingship" preserves the root connection to kingly authority rather than merely territory, and reflects the feminine singular determined state (marked by the Aramaic -ā ending), hence "the" and singular form. |
