Notes

  • 1 The begadkepat consonants (p,g,d,k,t,b) are stops when word initial or when syllable initial following a consonant. Otherwise they are the respective fricatives /f/, /ɣ/, /ð/, /x/, /θ/ and /v/. The fricative graphemes in the Latin alphabet are indicated with a dot under the stop graphemes.
  • 2 The dagesh is used to mark the stop consonants.
  • 3 ט (tet) /t/ has been deleted from the alphabet and replaced in all instances by ת (taf) /t/.
  • 4 ק (quf) has been deleted from the alphabet and replaced in all instances by כ (ka).
  • 5 The glottal stop /ʔ/ (') <ע> is used only to separate contiguous vowels, e.g., נַעַר, na'ar, boy.
  • 6 שׂ (sin) /s/ has been deleted from the alphabet and replaced in all instances by ס (sámex). Thus the dot is not needed for shin.
  • 7 ה (he) has been deleted when syllable final.
  • 8 ח (heth) has been deleted from the alphabet and replaced in all instances by כ (ka).
  • Use of the five final forms is optional.
  • There are no geminate consonants.

Notes

  • 1 Influenced by the Romanian ă.
  • All vowels are of equal length.
  • Syllabic and initial vowels are written under aleph, so there is no need for matres lectionis.
