us
| Root | את (ʾ-t) |
| Core Meanings | entity, object, self, mark, sign |
| Semantic Range | Direct object marker indicating definiteness; with suffixes, translates as 'me, you, him/it, us, you(pl), them'; contextually emphasizes the specified entity or group. |
| Conceptual Significance | As the most frequent object marker (over 11,000 occurrences), it highlights God's deliberate actions toward His people, such as in covenants and deliverance narratives (e.g., 'YHWH brought **us** out'), underscoring divine focus on Israel as the chosen entity. |
| Morphological Notes | HTo/Sp1cp: Hebrew direct object particle (אֵת) combined with 1st person common plural pronominal suffix (-נוּ); appears with various cantillation marks but consistent morphology. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form אֹתָנוּ is the particle אֵת with 1cp pronominal suffix -נוּ, functioning as the direct object marker specifying 'us' (first person common plural); English 'us' directly preserves this morphology and person/number. While אֵת derives from אוֹת (sign/mark), its primary grammatical role here is to definite the object with no independent semantic content requiring root-based alteration. The rendering reflects the Sp1cp (separate pronoun, 1st person common plural) by using the plural 'us' form. |
