to a wind-breath
| Morphological Notes | Preposition לְ (“to/for”) prefixed to a feminine singular noun רוּחַ (common gender but morphologically feminine), appearing in absolute or construct state (Ncbsa/Ncbsc). No pronominal suffix. Occurs four times in this form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun רוּחַ derives from the root רוח, conveying the idea of moving air—wind or breath—and by extension an animating or invisible force. The form is feminine singular (absolute or construct) with the prefixed preposition לְ (“to/for”), so “to a wind-breath” preserves both the singular feminine noun and its core sense of moving breath or wind. |
