Grammar Rules

Conjunction وَ (and)
وَيَـٰٓـَٔادَمُ (And O Adam!) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".
We add "and" to connect this to what came before.
Vocative يا (O!)
وَيَـٰٓـَٔادَمُ (And O Adam!) uses the vocative — it's calling out to someone or addressing them directly.
We add "O" before the name — "O And O Adam!!"
