<p class=MPpermanentpen>WADR, R’Danny, cannot “lawmeis” in 5-14:1
mean something entirely differently than either “lameis” or “l’meis”?
Onqelos apparently thought so. Good argument to answer R’Michael’s
question the same way I did, but for a different reason <span style='font-family:

<p class=MsoNormal>It is not poor dikduk - see D'varim 14:1. R' Michael is
correct - it is an indefinite article and means the same as l'meis.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>As I understand it, just as vav hachibur can take a kamatz
when the word is mil'eil and accented with a ta'am mafsik (see for example
B'reshit 8:22), a prefix lamed can do the same, although such forms are
rare. Other examples include zeh lozeh and tzav lotzov kav lokov
(Yeshaya 28:10).<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I think it does, as La- with a qamatz means that elsewhere.
The fact that<br>
it's poor diqduq to boot... Well, "I throwing the ball" means
something,<br>
despite the grammatical flaw.<br>
