What is the Aramaic word for honor the?

The Aramaic word for "honor" is כבוד (pronounced "kevod").

There isn't a single word for "honor the," but you can use כבד (pronounced "keved") followed by the definite article הַ (pronounced "ha") and then the object being honored.

For example:

* כבד הַמלך (keved ha-melek) - Honor the king

* כבד הַאִם (keved ha-im) - Honor the mother

You can also use the phrase שִׂים כבוד (pronounced "sim kevod") which translates to "put honor" or "give honor" followed by the object being honored.

For example:

* שִׂים כבוד לְאֶלהִים (sim kevod le-Elohim) - Give honor to God

* שִׂים כבוד לַמְּשׁוֹרֵר (sim kevod la-meshorer) - Put honor on the poet

Keep in mind that Aramaic has several dialects, and the exact pronunciation and spelling may vary slightly depending on the dialect.
