Questions & Answers about למתקן האחסון יש נפח אחסון מספיק.
In Hebrew, possession is often expressed with יש plus ל־.
So instead of saying something like The storage device has... with a direct verb for has, Hebrew often says:
- למתקן האחסון יש...
- literally: To the storage device, there is...
- natural meaning: The storage device has...
This is a very common pattern:
- לי יש זמן = I have time
- למחשב יש סוללה טובה = The computer has a good battery
So ל־ here marks the possessor.
יש means there is / there are / has / have, depending on context.
In this sentence:
- למתקן האחסון יש נפח אחסון מספיק
- literally: The storage device has sufficient storage volume/capacity
When Hebrew uses ל־ + noun + יש, the meaning is usually someone/something has.
So:
- יש by itself = there is / there are
- לX יש = X has
