ywm noun pl. construct

In Syr: the abs. is yōm/yūm and the most common pl. is yawmāṯā, BA יוֹמָתָא ; elsewhere yaw/ōm, yaw/ōmīn; there appears to be a lexical distinction between the two plurals in the older dialects, with yawmīn referring to literal "days," while yawmāṯā refers rather to "time, times," but they can be used interchangeably even in the same text: see Hugoye 14(2011):55.
