Search for compound Hebrew word?


Bill Allen

Recommended Posts

Hi. I'm trying to search for all the occurrences of infinitive constructs with affixed prepositions and pronominal suffixes.

 

One problem is that I don't know how to specify a search for a single word in the Hebrew construct.

 

The other problem is that I don't know how to append the needed affix and suffix.

 

Thanks!

This is how I would do it Bill...

Please ask if it doesn’t make sense and I will make a little movie.

If you just want the inseparable prepositions then try this...

Would this work?

‏?@ ‎[PARTICLE preposition]‏  ‎[VERB infinitiveConstruct]‎[sUFFIX pronominal]

(reversed for RTL)

 

this will not find examples of IC with מן - preformative

Yes it would, but I would go

 

(מן,ב,ל)@ ‎[PARTICLE preposition]‏ ‎[VERB infinitiveConstruct]‏ ‎[sUFFIX pronominal]‏ 

 
That specifies the 3 preformative prepositions and excluded any non-prepositional preformatives. It will find the single letter מ preposition because it is a lexeme search and not an inflected search

Thanks, Ken. Your first suggestion was adequate. I'll try the more specific searches later. Of course, I should have asked about prefixed prepositions, not affixed. "Measure twice, cut once," advice that pertains to carpentry, also applies to posting.
