Yes and no. Hebrew is not like English at all. English is descriptive, generally used to declare with precision. Excellence with English means words supposed to be chosen carefully to convey something. It confines things with boundaries. Hebrew is meant to make you feel like you were there; it is an indicative language. It leaves the door open to your personal experience. Excellence with Hebrew transports you to your own encounter with something, without defining any outcomes.
In the Bible, the Shekinah is a term for the manifestation of God's Presence; He wants you to know He's there. We could say that the Pillar of Fire was another form of Shekinah, as was the Burning Bush. However, it is very specifically a Covenant manifestation. It's a word used to conjure up the experience of encountering the awe, the power and authority.
Memra is typically meant to indicate a word from God that carries this power and authority. It is glorious, but does not indicate the glowing Presence, per se. It's not enough to chase down all the occurrences of it using Strong's or something like that. You have to see how it is used when it matters most.
In our lives as Christians, the Holy Ghost (AKA Holy Spirit) may or may not appear with that glowing glory. His Presence becomes mostly low key, in that He's there consistently, regardless of your presence of mind. However, He does fling that power around generously when it comes to bringing glory to the Son.
I'm not sure what you refer to as "She".
