[Heb-NACO] grammar question

[Shinohara, Jasmin]

Per the דעת מקרא:

'יין הרקח' מנוקד בנפרד, אף על פי שבא בסמיכות. ויש מפרשים, שאינו סמיכות, אלא כעין תואר או תמורה: יין שהוא רקח."

According to Larry, some constructs function with 2 forms. He will look into your question for further examples.

The simple answer is that the Tanakh doesn't always follow the rules of grammar, which were formulated hundreds of years later. For sacred texts, oral tradition overrules grammatical precision.

Hag sameah, everyone,

Hi all,



I am chanting chapters 5-8 of Shir ha-shirim this coming Shabat.



I have a grammar question.



The text in Shir ha-shirim has "אַשְׁקְךָ֙ מִיַּ֣יִן הָרֶ֔קַח"



My question is why is there a pataḥ under the first yud instead of a tsere.



I have checked several different editions of the Tanakh as well as Briggs-Driver.



According to Even-Shoshan and Luaḣ ha-Shemot יין  in סמיכות would have a "tsere" under the 1st yud.



Thanks, Heidi
