we inquired
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic verb; Peal (simple active) stem; perfect aspect; 1st person common plural ("we"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The Aramaic verb שְׁאֵל derives from the root שאל, meaning to ask or inquire. The form is 1st person common plural perfect, so "we inquired" accurately reflects both the completed action and the plural subject, while preserving the investigative nuance inherent in the root. |
