Lorinda H. M. Hoover Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 I encountered מִדְבַּרָה in 1 Kings 19:15, and discovered that the ה is not tagged. Checking the "suffix" options in the Hebrew construct, and all three tagged Hebrew texts I own, it looks as though a decision was made NOT to tag this suffix. Am I correct? If so, I'd be interested in knowing why this is so. [recognizing that in at least some cases Oak Tree does not do the tagging of Hebrew texts]. For beginners or those who are rusty, it would be helpful to have this tagged. And I would think that scholars interested in working with the use of the the ה locale/old accusative would find it helpful as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anon Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Lorinda: The ה- of direction is tagged in at least two of the texts I checked (HMT-W4/BHS-T). In addition, running a quick search for [sUFFIX directionalHeh] in HMT-W4 works via the Search Entry Box or the Hebrew Construct. What version texts and Accordance are you running?

Lorinda H. M. Hoover Posted October 30, 2013 Author Share Posted October 30, 2013 This is just weird. I went back to check versions: I had HMT-W4 up, and the suffix wasn't showing up as tagged in the ID box. I changed to BHS-T, and lo and behold the info showed up in ID (which it was NOT earlier today). Switched back and it was there in the HMT-W4. So something must have been temporarily fluky with my installation. Thanks for pointing out the directionalHeh search option. Turns out I was looking in the wrong spot in the construct interface, I looked under "class" instead of "person" Lorinda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
