that-which-is-suitable

Morphological NotesHR/Tr (Hebrew Relative/Transition): indeclinable primitive relative pronoun of every gender and number, often accompanied by expletive personal pronouns for connection; surfaces as כַּאֲשֶׁר combining כְּ ('as') with אֲשֶׁר ('which/that').
Rendering RationaleThe rendering 'that-which-is-suitable' captures the core semantics of the root כשר meaning 'proper, fitting, right' while directly reflecting the relative pronoun function of אשר as indicated in the gloss; it preserves the indeclinable nature (HR/Tr morphology) applicable to every gender and number without imposing specific grammatical markers since none are present in this form.
