There are no "waw-prefixes that need to be translated as 'that'".
There are only syntactical structures that, if we attempt to translate them,
may result in employing a word 'that'. However, there is no relation between
this word "that" and the word "w" in Hebrew.
Language is not built up of words, but of sentences.
