All semitic languages, including Hebrew, are based on the concept of a root (shoresh, שורש) which is a set of 3 consonants that contain the general meaning of the word. Some roots have 2 consonants and some have 4.

How do you say Holy Spirit in Aramaic?

"Rukha d'Qudsha" (Koodsha) is the way to say "Holy Spirit"... "Holy" is not an actual word in either Hebrew or Aramaic. It is a Greek word and therefore, would not have been used by the Jews of the time. "Qudsha" is a derivative of the word "Qadyish" which means "Set-Apart". "Rukha" means "Breath", "Wind" or "Spirit". It is interesting to note that the Aramaic is very close to the Hebrew in this aspect. In Hebrew, it is said "Ruach HaKodesh". In both Hebrew and Aramaic, the word "Rukha d'Qudsha" means "Set-Apart Spirit".
