Senses
1. Ammon (proper noun) — The proper name Ammon, referring to the people or territory of the Ammonites, descendants of Ben-Ammi son of Lot (Gen 19:38). Appears extensively in historical and prophetic texts concerning Israel's eastern neighbor (Judg, 1-2 Sam, 1-2 Kgs, Jer, Ezek, Amos, Zeph). Multilingual evidence is consistent: eng 'Ammon,' spa 'Amón/Ammón,' hin 'ammon,' arb 'ammuuna,' kor 'ammon,' swa 'Amoni.' The conjunction-prefixed form (waw + Ammon) is simply the coordinating conjunction 'and' attached to the same proper noun, not a distinct sense. 106×
