and Lud
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ prefixed to masculine proper noun (Np), singular; no pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form consists of the conjunction וְ ("and") prefixed to the proper noun לוּד (Lûwd). As a foreign ethnonym with uncertain root meaning, it is best preserved by transliteration, maintaining both the conjunction and the proper-name morphology. |
