R' EMT: <SNIP> The Rosh has the girsa "malk'sa," which refers to Shabbos as queen. Our g'mara, which has "hamalka," follows the Rosh's understanding, but has it in Hebrew, rather than in Aramaic. ---------------- I don't think anyone pointed out yet that the Girsa in Nusach Sefard's Lecha Dodi is also Shabbos Malk'sa.
