where?

Morphological Notes	Interrogative particle (HTi); indeclinable; prolonged form of אַי; functions adverbially to question location or presence.
Rendering Rationale	אַיֵּה is an interrogative particle meaning "where?" derived from the root אי, expressing inquiry about location or presence. As an indeclinable interrogative (HTi), it carries no gender, number, or person markers, so the faithful rendering remains the simple but direct "where?" preserving its full interrogative force.
