SIBI-P1 H8345-03
the sixth (feminine singular)
| Root | שׁשׁ (sh-sh) |
| Core Meanings | six, numerical sixness, sequence marked by six |
| Semantic Range | sixth in sequence; sixth day, year, month, or division; the sixth part (fractional use in feminine contexts). |
| Conceptual Significance | As an ordinal tied to the number six, it often marks structured time (e.g., the sixth day or year) within covenantal rhythms such as creation or sabbatical cycles, highlighting ordered sequence and completion within Israel’s sacred calendar. |
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, ordinal, feminine singular absolute with prefixed definite article (הַ). From שֵׁשׁ (six), functioning attributively or substantively in agreement with a feminine noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is an ordinal adjective derived from the root meaning "six," here with the definite article and in the feminine singular. Rendering it as "the sixth" preserves the ordinal sense rooted in "six," while noting its feminine singular form reflects agreement with a feminine noun (such as day, year, or portion). |
