אלמלא

Where it comes from

From Arabic إما لَ (ʾimmā lā), equivalent to

إما (ʾimmā, “if even”) + لَ (lā, “not”) cognate with Hebrew לֹא (lo). Likely adapted to form the compound אִי ('i, “not having, not being”) + לְמַלֵּא (lemalé, “to fulfill”).

conjunction אִלְמָלֵא · 'ilmalé

unless, if not לֹא הָיִיתִי נוֹסֵעַ לַהַצָּגָה אִלְמָלֵא רָכַשְׁתִּי כַּרְטִיס מִבְּעוֹד מוֹעֵד.
without, were it not for הָיִיתִי נִכְשָׁל בַּמִּבְחָן אִלְמָלֵא הַיֶּדַע הָרַב שֶׁלִּי בְּעִבְרִית.

In English
