Hello

On your userpage, you write: "Please notify me if any pages which you think I would be interested in are in need of attention". So, I think you might be interested in my response to your comment here. 77.124.12.169 (talk) 12:29, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Are there any sandhi rules in biblical Hebrew? Do changes in vowel pointing constitute as 'sandhi'? Again, thank you for your response.Van Gulik (talk) 14:34, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not only changes in vowel pointing, but also changes in consonants. e.g.

The consonants b,d,g,k,p,t, become v,the,gh,kh,f,thaw, after vowels (providing that those consonants are not "doubled");
In some well-defined phonetic conditions, the consonant ת in Pre-biblical texts - becomes ט in biblical texts (e.g. in the word הִצְטַעֵר, and likewise);
The consonant cluster NP in ancient biblical texts (e.g. in the word לִנְפּוֹל i.e. LiNPoL - as appearing in Psalms), becomes PP in biblical prose (e.g. לִפּוֹל i.e. LiPPoL);
In some well-defined phonetic conditions, the consonant H in ancient biblical texts, is omitted in biblical prose (e.g. the word בהשמים i.e. BHaSHaMaYiM - as appearing in Psalms, becomes בשמים i.e. BaSHaMaYiM - in the biblical prose texts);
And the like.
