Breakdown of נקודת הנתינה וההחלפה מקבלת עודפי בגדים.
Questions & Answers about נקודת הנתינה וההחלפה מקבלת עודפי בגדים.
Because נקודת is in the construct state (called סמיכות in Hebrew).
- נקודה = a point
- נקודת ... = point of ...
So:
- נקודת הנתינה = the point of giving / the donation point
In Hebrew, when one noun is linked to another noun like X of Y, the first noun often changes form. That is exactly what is happening with נקודה → נקודת.
In a construct chain, the definiteness usually appears on the second noun, not the first.
So:
- נקודת הנתינה literally looks like point of the-giving
- but the whole phrase means the donation point
This is a very common Hebrew pattern. The first noun in the construct chain usually does not take ה־, even when the whole phrase is definite.
