VERSE: Dt01-41a

========================== Dt01-41a =========================

SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
One of Rashis 5 main goals is to explain meaning the same
way a dictionary explains meaning. Rashi had a variety
of vehicles to explain meaning In this posting we review
the methods by which NOUNS/ADJECTIVES become VERBS and
vice verse.

EXAMPLE Ex27-03b
----------------
DESHEN means DUST; LeDaShayN means TO DUST(To remove dust)

EXAMPLE Dt01-41a
----------------
TO READY oneself means to MAKE oneself ready

Thus in one case the verb from the noun connotes REMOVAL
(to DUST) while in the other it connotes CREATION(to READY)

NOTES
-----
*1 eg To FIRE a furnace

*2 Ex16-20b

*3 Ex19-12a

*4 Ex28-39a EMBROIDER the pants of LINEN
   means make them embroidered

*5 Nu04-13b, Ex27-03b

*6 Lv17-04a

*7 As we have explained it TO DOUGH would mean
   to BAKE. Actually we need another step. A verb
   can refer to its ACTIVITY FORM. So the 2 steps are
   - DOUGH becomes TO DOUGH=to BAKE
   - TO DOUGH becomes TO SWELL (form of DOUGH rising)
   See LIST814a for more details

*8 Ex05-07a Ex05-07b

*9 Thus YOU READIED YOURSELF TO FIGHT (Dt01-41a) means
   that you said WE ARE READY TO FIGHT (That is the
   Jews created or transformed themselves into a state
   of readiness)

------------------- LONGER FOOTNOTES --------------------

*10
   We present 3 methods by which OBJECTS (Nouns) acquire
   ACTIVITY (verb) meaning
   - eg To RECORD = to CREATE a RECORD
   - eg To DUST   = to REMOVE dust
   - eg To HAMMER = do STANDARD ACTIVITY of hammar
