============= HOT ITEMS ================================ The 6 Rashi Rules http://www.RashiYomi.Com/rules-01.htm ENGLISH RASHI: http://www.mnemotrix.com/metsudah THE WHITE PAPERS: http://www.RashiYomi.Com/white.htm ========================================================= |
GOALS ===== This module studies Rashis treatment of classical grammar. In other words how did Rashi treat the rules you find in modern LEARN-HEBREW textbooks TODAYS UNIT =========== In todays unit we review some technical matters: - the distinction between THE BAKER vs HE WHO BAKES - the fact that some words are DUAL GENDERED REFERENCE: ========= Todays unit comes from the following postings http://www.Rashiyomi.com/gn40-01c.htm http://www.RashiYomi.com/gn32-09a.htm http://www.RashiYomi.com/h8n13.htm http://www.RashiYomi.Com/h8n16.htm |

EXAMPLE 131: Gn32-09a CAMP is both MASCULINE and FEMININE NOTE:This Rashi is miscoded and really occurs at Gn33-08. The database and this posting will eventually rectify this mistake. COMMENT: -------- This is one of those rare Rashis where Rashi explicitly defends himself using a LIST OF EXAMPLES, the way we do, in this email list. RULE ---- In Hebrew, unlike English, every word has a GENDER and this effects conjugation of verbs.However certain words are bi-gender That is these words can appear with both masculine and feminine gender LIST ---- A collection of words that have both MASCULINE and FEMININE forms. For each word we give a verse where it is conjugated in MASCULINE and a verse where it is conjugated FEMININE | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

EXAMPLE 132: Gn40-01c The BAKER is more than someone WHO BAKES EXAMPLE 133: Gn14-19a The OWNER is more than someone WHO BUYS BACKGROUND ---------- We all know the distinction between an object & process -- HE WHO BAKES is someone who does baking -- THE BAKER is someone whose official JOB is baking THE RASHI --------- Rashi lays down the rule that Present tense verbs, unless they are really needed as a verb, refer not to an ACTIVITY but rather to a JOB THE LIST -------- The list below contains Present form verbs which however really refer to the person whose JOB is to do that activity. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT --------------- The above list was compiled with the help of the New Grammatical Form Konkordance, entitled, SEFER AMAYLIM BATORAH, compiled by Al Silberman from Monsey. | ||
| VERSE | PERSON | ROOT (VERB FORM) |
| Gn40-01c | Baker | To bake |
| 2Sa24-11 | Prophet | To vision |
| Dt24-11 | Lender | To create a Lien |
| Ez03-17 | Prophet | To see distantly |
| Gn14-19a | Owner*4 | To buy*1 |
| COMMENTS | ||
*1 The BUYER could simply buy the object and sell it--he could act as a middleman. The OWNER however is a person who permanantly bought the object -- that is, his job is to have the object bought. | ||
