Strong’s #5219, נְכאת nekot, noun fem. something smitten to powder. “a pounding, breaking in pieces, hence aromatic powder, which from being a general name, became applied to some particular kind of aromatic.” – Gesenius. See #5218 and #5217 nake נְכא to smite, scourge, which is also derived from this root. #5218 is interpreted as an adjective smitten. This however seems incorrect as participle verb would likely be used as seen in Psalm 109:16, נִכְאֵ֨ה he-who-is-smitten. Thus, a smiting wind as opposed to a “broken heart”:

“A merry heart is creating-good, a cure, and a smiting [nake] wind is drying-up a bone.” Prov. 17:22 literal
