and-without
A particle of negation meaning 'there is not,' 'is not,' or 'does not exist'; used to express the absence, non-existence, or lack of a person, thing, quality, or condition. By extension, it can mark someone as lacking (e.g., fatherless), or denote a place or thing as absent or no longer present. Rarely functions substantively to indicate a non-entity or nothingness.

and-from absence
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ + preposition מִן (assimilated) + negative existential particle אַיִן; fixed particle, not inflected for gender or number. |
| Rendering Rationale | The base particle אַיִן asserts non-existence or absence. With prefixed conjunction וְ (and) and preposition מִן (from), the form conveys movement or derivation "from non-existence/absence," preserving both the existential negation and the attached morphology. |
