| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וָ + negative existential particle אַיִן; fixed form, not inflected for gender or number. |
| Rendering Rationale | The particle אַיִן asserts categorical non-existence or absence; prefixed וָ adds the conjunction "and." The rendering preserves its existential negation rather than a simple verbal "not." |
