and you
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ + independent personal pronoun, second person feminine singular (Pp2fs). |
| Rendering Rationale | The form combines the conjunction וְ ("and") with the independent second person feminine singular pronoun אַתְּ, directly addressing a female individual. English does not distinguish gender in the second person singular, so "you" preserves the function while the conjunction retains the prefixed sense. |
