+\noindent Rabbinic Hebrew (\RH) does not differ greatly from Biblical Hebrew
+(\BH) in its inflection of the noun, although the neutralization of
+final {\it mem\/} and {\it nun\/} means that the masculine plural
+is often, as in Aramaic,
+ \[\=iyn^\].
+Apart from the more
+frequent use of the archaic feminine suffix
+ \[\=ath\]
+as in
+ \[koheneth\]
+`priest's wife' and
+ \['illemeth\]
+`dumb woman', \RH\ also
+employs the suff{}ixes
+ \[\=iyth\]
+and
+ \[\={}ooth\]
+for
+example
+ \[':araumiyth\]
+`Aramaic' and
+ \[`av'dooth\]
+`servitude'. \RH\
+developed distinctive feminine plural suff{}ixes in
+ \[\=+'Oth\]
+(Babylonian) or
+ \[\=+yOth\]
+(Palestinian), for example
+ \[mar'ch:atsauyOth\]/\[mar'ch:atsau'Oth\]
+`bath-houses' and
+ \[\=iyyOth\],
+as in
+ \[mal'khiy*Oth\]
+`kingdoms' for \BH\
+ \[mal'khuyO{}th\],
+for nouns ending in
+ \[=ooth\]
+in the singular. Masculine
+plural forms sometimes differ from those that would be expected, or
+are normally found, in \BH, for example,
+ \[n'ziqiyn^\]
+from
+ \[naezeq\]
+`damage',
+ \[sh^'wauriym^\]
+from
+ \[sh^Or\]
+`ox',
+ \[sh^'wauqiym^\]
+from
+ \[sh^\/ooq\]
+`market',
+ \[ts'daudiym^\]
+from
+ \[tsad\]
+`side',
+ \[ch:atsau'iyn^\]
+from
+ \[ch:atsiy\]
+`half', and
+ \[sh^'l\/oochiyn^\]
+from
+ \[sh^auliy_ach\]
+`envoy'.
+The same is true of feminine nouns, for example
+ \['Othiy*Oth\]
+from
+ \['Oth\]
+`letter (of alphabet)',
+ \[b'riythOth\]
+from
+ \[b'riyth\]
+`covenant
+(without plural in \BH)', and
+ \['im*auhOth\]
+from
+ \['aem^\]
+`mother'.
+
+Some masculine nouns take the feminine plural suffix
+ \[-Oth\],
+for example,
+ \[chin*Oth\]
+from
+ \[chaen^\]
+`favour',
+ \[k'laulOth\]
+from
+ \[kh'laul\]
+`rule',
+ \[tiynoqOth\]
+from
+ \[tiynOq\]
+`baby',
+ \[ch:ayaulOth\]
+from
+ \[chayil\]
+`army',
+ \[`:ayaurOth\]
+from
+ \[`iyr\]
+`city', and
+ \[maeymO\/th\]
+from
+ \[mayim^\]
+`water'. Similarly, there are some feminine
+nouns which take the masculine plural suffix
+ \[\=iym^\]---\[yOniym^\]
+from
+ \[yOnauh\]
+`dove',
+ \[n'mauliym^\]
+from
+ \[n'maulauh\]
+`ant', and
+ \[baeytsiym^\]
+from
+ \[baeytsauh\]
+`egg', for example. Occasionally, both
+types of plural are evidenced, as with
+ \[yaumOth\]/\[yaumiym^\]
+from
+ \[yOm^\]
+`day' or
+ \[sh^aunOth\]/\[sh^auniym^\]
+from
+ \[sh^aunauh\]
+`year', with each form having a slightly
+different shade of meaning and the `feminine' variant only used with
+suffixes. In \RH\ we sometimes find plurals of nouns only attested in
+the singular in \BH, for example
+ \[':avauriym^\]
+from
+ \['aever\]
+`limb',
+ \[dd'sh^au'iyn^\]
+from
+ \[ddesh^e'\]
+`grass', and
+ \[t'midiym^\]
+from
+ \[taumiyd\]
+`daily sacrifice'. Likewise, there are
+singular forms of nouns only attested in the plural in \BH, for example
+ \['il'moog\]
+`coral-wood',
+ \[baeytsauh\]
+`egg',
+and
+ \[bautsaul\]
+`onion'. The dual is used more than in \BH,
+with existing forms retained and new ones created, for example
+ \[ma.s'paurayim^\]
+`scissors' and
+ \[baen'tayim^\]
+`meanwhile'. (1993: A. S\'aenz-Badillos, {\it A History of the Hebrew
+Language}, Cambridge University Press, pp.\thinspace 188-89.)\par
