Usage: The Hebrew word "תָּא" (ta) refers to a small, enclosed space such as a chamber, room, or cell. It is often used in the context of architectural structures, particularly in describing parts of the temple or other significant buildings. The term conveys the idea of a designated space for specific purposes, often related to storage or habitation.
