WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT

The connector דִּי

דִּי is one of the most important Biblical Aramaic connecting words. It can introduce a relative clause, link nouns, introduce content, or participate in other clause relationships. Do not assign one permanent English word. Read what comes before and after it, then choose the English relationship that fits the actual Aramaic construction.
