Look!
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic demonstrative particle (interjection-like), used to introduce or emphasize a statement or object; indeclinable. |
| Rendering Rationale | "Look!" directly reflects the particle’s function of drawing attention or indicating immediacy. As a demonstrative particle, it serves to point something out rather than convey lexical content beyond emphasis. |
