Pronunciation

Noun

ܩܲܛܝܼܢܬܵܐ • (qaṭīntā) f sg (plural ܩܲܛܝܼ̈ܢܹܐ (qaṭīnē) or ܩܲܛܝܼ̈ܢܵܬ݂ܵܐ (qaṭīnāṯā))

  1. (formal, proscribed) minute
  2. (by extension) a short time; moment

Usage notes

  • Usually, the plural ܩܲܛܝܼ̈ܢܹܐ (qaṭīnē) is a paucal plural (from two to nine or sixty) while the plural ܩܲܛܝܼ̈ܢܵܬ݂ܵܐ (qaṭīnāṯā) is a multiple plural (ten or sixty-one or more).
  • Since ܩܲܛܝܼܢܬܵܐ (qaṭīntā) is feminine, the numbers with gendered forms display feminine gender agreement when they refer to the minutes to or past the hour. However, in some dialects of colloquial Assyrian Neo-Aramaic, masculine numbers are often used regardless.
