and the summer season

Morphological NotesConjunction וְ + definite article הַ + masculine singular common noun, absolute state.
Rendering RationaleThe noun קַיִץ denotes the dry, hot season of fruit ripening; rendering it as "summer season" preserves its primary seasonal sense. The prefixed conjunction וְ and definite article הַ are reflected in "and the," and the masculine singular absolute form is maintained in English as a singular noun.
