SIBI-P1 H3327-04
He Laughs
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun, masculine singular (HNp). The form corresponds to a Qal imperfect 3ms pattern from צחק used as a personal name. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name יִצְחָק derives from the root צחק ("to laugh"). Formally, it reflects a Qal imperfect 3rd masculine singular verbal form, meaning "he laughs" or "he will laugh." Rendering it as "He Laughs" preserves both the verbal force of the root and the masculine singular form indicated by the morphology (HNp). |
