How so? Show me an example of a noun root that adds the Yodh when forming the Emphatic ?
Don't mention KWRSYA, "throne", as that already has the Yodh in the root.
If your logic holds, then we would make B_R_Y_A for the emphatic of "Son", and that's just wrong. It's B_R_A for the emphatic of "son", it's unaltered from the root lexical stem. There's no Yodh added to it.
Likewise, there's no Yodh added to M_R_A to make "the lord", it's simply M_R_A for the emphatic. Unchanged from the root. It's not a substantive, it's not a verbal root. This is the basics of Aramaic grammar.
