| Root | הוא (h-w-ʾ) |
| Core Meanings | demonstrative reference, this/that, being, presence |
| Semantic Range | thus, so, like this, in this manner, here, hither, now, to this point, on this side |
| Conceptual Significance | Frequently used in prophetic formulas such as "כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה" ("Like this says YHWH"), it introduces divine speech and underscores that what follows corresponds exactly to the manner or message being conveyed, marking authoritative proclamation. |
| Morphological Notes | Adverbial demonstrative particle; composed of the preposition כ־ ("like/as") plus a demonstrative base related to הוא. Indeclinable and does not vary for gender, number, or person. |
| Rendering Rationale | כֹּה is formed from the prefixed כ־ ("like/as") attached to the demonstrative הוא ("this/that"), yielding the sense "like this" or "in this manner." As an indeclinable adverb (HD), it carries no gender, number, or person marking, so the rendering reflects its fixed demonstrative-adverbial force. |
