SIBI-P1 Translation H5728-02
until now
| Morphological Notes | Adverb; compound form from עַד + הֵן, with optional emphatic suffix -nāh (עֲדֶנָּה). |
| Rendering Rationale | The term is a compound of עַד (“until, up to”) and הֵן (“now, here”), forming an adverb meaning “until now.” The emphatic -nāh ending in the alternate form strengthens the sense of ongoing or persisting state up to the present moment. |
