Purim poetry - Coplas de Purim

Purim selections from
Mind Waves: Journeys 2011, MJBHA (high school) literary magazine
=====================
Orlee Rebibo
I Never Thought I Would Be Selected
I never thought I would be selected,
Never thought I would make it.
I didn't know I was pretty
as a rose.
All the other girls covered in silk, in expensive gems
and me covered in rags and very simple jewelry.
While, I had a sweet kind natural smile
the other girls had fake undesirable grins.
========
Anonymous
I was scared
going to the harem
I didn't want to be a queen
I wanted to be a normal girl
seeing the other women scared me.

Passover word-find in The Four Questions

 

The word "all" occurs 6 times in the English

Find the six equivalent times that it occurs in the Hebrew

מַה נִּשְׁתַּנָּה הַלַּיְלָה הַזֶּה מִכָּל הַלֵּילוֹת? שֶׁבְּכָל הַלֵּילוֹת אָנוּ אוֹכְלִין חָמֵץ וּמַצָּה, הַלַּיְלָה הַזֶּה – כֻּלּוֹ מַצָּה. שֶׁבְּכָל הַלֵּילוֹת אָנוּ אוֹכְלִין שְׁאָר יְרָקוֹת – הַלַּיְלָה הַזֶּה (כֻּלּוֹ) מָרוֹר. שֶׁבְּכָל הַלֵּילוֹת אֵין אָנוּ מַטְבִּילִין אֲפִילוּ פַּעַם אֶחָת – הַלַּיְלָה הַזֶּה שְׁתֵּי פְעָמִים. שֶׁבְּכָל הַלֵּילוֹת אָנוּ אוֹכְלִין בֵּין יוֹשְׁבִין וּבֵין מְסֻבִּין – הַלַּיְלָה הַזֶּה כֻּלָּנוּ מְסֻבִּין.

What differentiates this night from all [other] nights? On all [other] nights we eat chametz and matzah; this night, only matsa? On all [other] nights we eat other vegetables; tonight (only) marror. On all [other] nights, we don't dip [our food], even one time; tonight [we dip it] twice. On [all] other nights, we eat either sitting or reclining; tonight we all recline.

Translating the Tanakh

∞ source   ALT-236

From https://uhg.readthedocs.io/en/latest/state_absolute.html The most fundamental difference between the two forms is that the construct form can take an attached suffix, but the absolute form cannot.  ... Because infinitives do not change form for either gender or number, there is usually only one infinitive construct form and one infinitive absolute form of a verb in Biblical Hebrew.   

https://hebrew.billmounce.com/BasicsBiblicalHebrew-20.pdf  The Hebrew Infinitive Construct is a verbal noun. It is not inflected for person, gender or number. ... The vowel pattern is consistent for all strong verbs and even for most weak verbs.

see p.2: it has a shva (2 vertical dots) and a holam-oh (dot on the upper-left corner of the consonant on the right)

In English https://pediaa.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Difference-Between-Gerund-and-Verbal-Noun-infographic-599x1024.jpg (source) All gerunds end in +ing ; verbal nouns are nouns, so they can pluralize and take adjectives: Two readings

In Hebrew verbal nouns don't conjugate because they are nouns, not verbs.

Could Knave be related to ....

Ganav גַנָב related here by writer David Curwin to gambit by way of the Arabic janab  [janibu]

Gonnif גנב , ‘Thief’ is found in Yiddish, Judeo-Italian and Judeo-Spanish per linguist  and educator Asya Pereltsvaig at Languages of the World (p.252, edition 2012)

However, knave here relates to a Germanic word for boy . The g and j can alternate in Arabic , but g and kh don't in either Hebrew or Arabic. The kh guttural is apparently the sound behind the kn phonogram as indicated here. These whimsical word lists might do better if they were sound-based, rather than spelling-based. The words share status as epithets with similar meaning, but that should not fuel a goose-chase through historical phonological processes in search of just the right combination to create a shared origin.
