| Morphological Notes | Interrogative particle/adverb; invariable form; no gender or number. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form אָן is an interrogative particle derived from אַיִן, expressing inquiry about location or direction. "Where?" preserves its core function of questioning presence or place without adding contextual nuance. |
