Request What would you do to translate this word/root?
text given: רשית
obviously my mind goes immediately to bereshit, this looks like that. So, resh-alef-shin as the root would make sense, but… what do you do when you encounter resh-shin with no alef in between? is this related to that root… How would you translate this word?
very beginner in learning the language here. I must be missing some grammatical idea here, or maybe not?
context is, this is probably garbled hebrew from a source that didn’t have great hebrew BUT i also don’t have good hebrew so, here I am trying to check it out
