Question: what is the meaning of the root word holy in hebrew?
Answer: Hebrew. Qudšu was later used in Jewish Aramaic to refer to God, and qudš is the proto-form of the Hebrew word qadōš, meaning "holy". Words derived from the root qdš appear some 830 times in the Hebrew Bible. ... The Hebrew language is called "The Holy Tongue" (Hebrew: לשון הקודש "Lashon HaKodesh") in Judaism.
