Nov 16, 2016 at 19:59 comment added DanF I found the M.Y. answer about the definition of "pat" judaism.stackexchange.com/a/70431/5275
Nov 16, 2016 at 19:22 comment added kouty @DanF Yes loaf, it was my intent. I understand that piece is slice...
Nov 16, 2016 at 19:02 comment added DanF I'll find a M.Y. question that discussed the meaning of "pat". I know it's around as I answered it a few months ago. "Kikar" means "loaf".
Nov 16, 2016 at 17:11 comment added kouty @DanF You are sure that pat means piece. I believed that it is dough only. I think that in loazim also as pasta in Italian, pâte in French. It is also a symbolic word for subsistence, in French pitance. Piece is kikar I think. What do you think?
Nov 16, 2016 at 16:39 comment added DanF Very interesting discussion of language usage. One confusing point to me. The term "pat" actually means "piece". In Tanac"h, we see the term "pat lechem" frequently. I don't think that the term "pat" is used to mean "dough", at least not in Tanac"h. Has the Talmud changed the meaning of this term? I think even in the Talmud, it is used to refer to bread, but even there, I still thin it means "piece" (of bread).
