μικρόν

מְעַט mᵉʻaṭ · H4592 · few, little, small

Hebrew מְעַט denotes smallness in quantity, degree, or temporal duration across both concrete and abstract contexts, directly corresponding to Greek μικρόν's semantic range of brief time spans and small degrees, reflecting genuine translation equivalence in the Septuagint's rendering of temporal and quantitative minimality.

קָטָן qâṭân · H6996 · small, weak, young

קָטָן (qâṭân, H6996) קָטָן and μικρόν (mikrón, G3397) μικρόν both denote smallness in size, quantity, degree, or temporal extent; the Hebrew lemma has broader nominal usage (small person/thing) while the Greek neuter adjective commonly functions adverbially for brief time spans, but their core semantic overlap as 'small/little' in general application makes them direct cross-linguistic equivalents.

זְעֵיר zᵉʻêyr · H2191 · little

Greek μικρόν denotes smallness in time/degree; Aramaic זְעֵיר denotes smallness generally, functioning as its direct semantic equivalent in the limited Aramaic corpus where both co-occur.
