to this
| Morphological Notes | Preposition לְ + demonstrative pronoun, feminine singular (Aramaic). |
| Rendering Rationale | The form consists of the preposition לְ (“to/for”) prefixed to the Aramaic feminine singular demonstrative דָּא, indicating something proximate. "To this" preserves both the directional prefix and the proximal force of the pronoun. |
