WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT
וְ־
The attached וְ־ is one of the most frequent pieces in Biblical Hebrew. It normally connects the word or clause to what came before. English may use “and,” “but,” “then,” or another natural connector depending on the relationship. Its vowel can change in particular sound environments, so the learner should recognize the letter and its connecting job even when the pointing is not always וְ.
