one (feminine singular)

Rootאחד (ʾ-ḥ-d)
Core Meaningsoneness, unity, singularity, being joined as one
Semantic Rangeone; a single; one thing; one woman; each (feminine context); first (in certain constructions); a certain (feminine referent)
Conceptual SignificanceThe root אחד expresses the foundational biblical concept of unity and singularity, central to Israel’s confession of YHWH’s oneness (e.g., Deut 6:4). Even in its feminine form, the term underscores themes of indivisible unity, uniqueness, and singular identity within covenantal and communal contexts.
Morphological NotesCardinal numeral functioning adjectivally; feminine singular absolute form of אֶחָד. Used to modify feminine nouns or to stand substantivally in feminine reference.
Rendering Rationaleאַחַת is the feminine singular absolute form of the numeral from the root אחד, which conveys unity or oneness. The rendering "one (feminine singular)" preserves the core sense of unity while explicitly reflecting the grammatical gender and number indicated by the morphology (HAcfsa).
