The root here is Y(D, or as some say W(D. (DH is a root with the meaning of
“to adorn” as in putting on jewelry. (DD is considered a variant of (WD to
do a second time, as in reporting what one witnessed. Biblical Hebrew was
pretty careful with its roots, not mixing them up even though their
derivatives may share the same consonantal spellings.
