WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT
The qamatz sign is not always read a. In common words such as כׇּל, the qamatz is read o; this is called qamatz qatan. Rather than making beginners guess from an advanced rule every time, Targum Molcho should teach the most frequent qamatz-qatan words explicitly and explain the structural rules gradually.
