Usage notes

  • The phrase ܕܥܒ݂ܝܼܪܹܗ (dˁḇīrēh) is not a true adjective, but rather, is grammatically a relative clause (literally meaning “that has passed”). As a result, it does not inflect for definiteness, and its feminine singular and plural forms are the conjunction ܕ- (d-) plus the third-person feminine singular past tense and third-person plural past tense (respectively) of the verb ܥܵܒ݂ܹܪ (ˁāḇēr).
