and now (at this time)

Morphological NotesFormed with prefixed conjunction וְ ("and"). When parsed as HC/D it is an adverb ("now, at this time") from עת. When parsed as HC/Pp2ms it represents the independent pronoun אַתָּה ("you," masculine singular) with prefixed conjunction.
Rendering RationaleThe adverb עַתָּה derives from the root עת, denoting a specific time or appointed moment; thus "and now (at this time)" preserves its temporal force while reflecting the prefixed conjunction וְ ("and"). In occurrences where the form represents וְאַתָּה (2ms pronoun), it means "and you (masculine singular)," preserving the second-person masculine singular morphology.
