None of this is on the thread topic.
The "well-regarded Hebrew Dictionary" does show both "young woman" and "virgin" for "almah". You prefer the KJV, which like you chooses to completely ignore the context in support of a theological position and against reason. There are other English-language versions than KJV --virgins in advanced pregnancy, and all:
New Revised Std Ver:
Look, the young woman is with child and shall bear a son, and shall name him Immanuel.
Lexham English Bible:
Look! the virgin is with child and she is about to give birth to a son, and she shall call his name ‘God with us.’
New English Translation
Look, this young woman is about to conceive and will give birth to a son. You, young woman, will name him Immanuel.
