The following is intended to be a list (from the WTS database) of all
the forms ending in -MOW in the Hebrew Bible, excluding cases of nouns
and verbs ending in -M with the -OW 3rd person singular suffix. Note
that these references are almost all in poetry.

It is interesting that these forms are all defined as "X3mp" which
means "with third person plural pronominal suffix", except for the
prepositional forms B.:MOW, K.:MOW and L:MOW/LFMOW and the one
occurrence of (FL"YMOW in JOB 22:2. I guess this is because WTS parsed
these semi-automatically and did not attempt to decide which are
plural. Probably this is a case where old manual methods are better
than modern technology. But I also still wonder if modern comparative
linguistics can help to answer whether this suffix can really be both
singular and plural, or if we have to look for such explanations as
"dignified singular".

Better still, if someone with an electornic concordance could list all
the occurrences of the -MOW ending, we could figure it out for ourselves.
