Leah
and Leah
A personal name, Leah; most notably the first wife of Jacob and mother to several Israelite tribes. The primary lexical reference is to an individual rather than a common noun, though the root connection suggests the meaning 'weary' or 'wearied.' The semantic range is largely proper-nominal, referring almost exclusively to the biblical matriarch.

and to Weary-one
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction ו + preposition ל + proper feminine singular name (Leah). |
| Rendering Rationale | The proper name derives from the root meaning "to be weary." Rendering it as "Weary-one" preserves the root sense, while "and to" reflects the prefixed conjunction ו and preposition ל attached to the feminine proper name. |
