But then exactly the same form is used in 7534 and 7535 twice

Translations
FM Woe to you and woe to you
Yusuf Ali Woe to thee, (O men!), yea, woe!
Sahih International Woe to you, and woe!

Also the form is found in, for example

4135 (FM translation) O you who believe, stand with justice as witnesses to God, even if against yourselves, or the parents or the relatives. Even if he be rich or poor, God is more worthy of them, so do not follow desire into being unjust. And if you twist or turn away, then God is Expert over what you do.

It only means / is translated as "woe" in 7534 and 7535

And I just can't get clear in my mind the reason why "more appropiate / close / near / follow" etc. bears clearly the nuance of "woe" in 7534... What am I missing? '(

Thanks in advance.

this root is a way more complicated , becoz its usage and words deriverd from same root have different meanings .. so you have to check the full sentence with cross refrencing for understanding properly...

gentle lady you are hunting roots now a days ... yes

if you look the same word in 19 70 and 875 you will see a difference there again...

Root meanings of are

Project root list
Waw-Lam-Ya = to be close, near, follow, be up to.

We use idioms and phrases in any language to convey certain meanings. When we say "at an arm's length" we know what is meant.

Similarly in Arabic when it is said it literally means "nearer to you so nearer to you" but metaphorically it means destruction is nearer to you.( Ref Lughat-ul-Quran by Parvez Ahmad http//qes.no/Lughat/LughatVolum-IV.pdf)

Hope it helps
