Questions & Answers about בבוקר היה קרח על האוטו, ולכן חיכינו כמה דקות לפני שנסענו.
Because the first ב־ is the preposition in/at, and the second ב is part of the noun בוקר (morning).
So:
- בוקר = morning
- בבוקר = in the morning
In a more detailed grammatical sense, this is ב־ plus the definite form the morning, so the whole thing means in the morning, not just in morning.
Hebrew often attaches little prepositions directly to the word that follows. Here, בבוקר is the normal way to say in the morning.
So even though English uses two separate words, Hebrew uses one attached form. This is very common with prefixes like:
- ב־ = in / at
- ל־ = to / for
- כ־ = like / as
