STRONGS H6990: Abbreviations
† [קוֺט] dubious verb intransitive, assumed meaning break, snap (supposed to be akin to Arabic cut, cut off, pare, trim [whence Buhl assumes √ קטט]), to account for יְקוֺט Job 8:14, either as Qal Imperfect 3rd person masculine singular whose hope snappeth; or as noun [masculine] = fragile thing (|| בֵּית עַכָּבִישׁ; compare Di Bu); probably corrupt; Du Beer read קוּרִים Bu conjecture קֻרֵי קַיִט [Aramaism for קַיִץ ק׳].
