Questions & Answers about תא המדידה נמצא ליד מתלה הבגדים.

What does תא mean here, and is it the same as a fitting room?

Yes. תא literally means booth, cubicle, or compartment, and in this sentence תא המדידה means the fitting room / changing room.

By itself, תא is a general word:

• תא טלפון = phone booth
• תא דואר = mailbox / post office box
• תא מדידה = fitting room

So here it is not just any תא, but specifically a measurement / fitting booth, which is the normal Hebrew way to say fitting room.

Why is it המדידה and not just מדידה?

Because the phrase is definite: תא המדידה = the fitting room.

Hebrew often makes a noun phrase definite by adding ה־ to the second noun in this kind of structure. In תא המדידה:

• תא = booth / room
• מדידה = measuring / fitting
• המדידה = the fitting / the measuring

Together, the phrase means the fitting room.

This is a very common pattern in Hebrew noun combinations.

Is תא המדידה literally the room of measuring?
