### Brown–Driver–Briggs 1906

אַתְּ: pron. thou [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/tanakh/1488/lemma_3a_5d0_5b7_5ea_5b0_5bc/#m2)

**The whole BDB entry:** pron. 2 s. f. thou (fem.) (shortened from אַתִּי (q.v.); in Syriac the two genders are written differently, ܐܰܢ̱ܬ݀, ܐܰܢ̱ܬ݀ܝ, but, the ܝ not being sounded, are pronounced alike: in 𝔗 both are written אַתְּ or אַנְתְּ) Gn 12:11, 13; 24:23 + often. Thrice Nu 11:15; Dt 5:24; Ez 28:14 used as a masc. (as in Aramaic of 𝔗); but prob. אַתָּ (v. sub אַתָּה) should be here read.

Why these entries: BDB: headword, part of speech not compared, 3 of its verses cited, 0 words shared with the glosses (12 candidates); OSHB: headword, part of speech not compared, 1 words shared with the BDB entry, 0 with the glosses (8 candidates)
