I think it's generally understood to be a euphemism, so instead of actually
saying "curse," you could be more polite by saying "bless."

Here are some places where BRK is understood to be euphemistic:

1 Kings 21:10,13
Job 1:5,11

Blessings (no euphemism intended! :-)

In answer to how Peter's attempt at using unicode looks in the digests, here
it is:

For example: the first word in the Hebrew Bible is =
=E1=CC=C0=F8=C5=E0=F9=D1=C4=E9=FA
B.:R")$IYT

Vince, I think you are both right and wrong here. Right that these words
should be treated as distinct lexical items with distinct meanings. But
wrong in assuming that these are simply homonyms with no etymological
connection. There is good reason to understand (along with BDB) the
sense BRK "bless" as a secondary sense of BRK "kneel"; also B.:R"KFH
"pool, pond" as derived from BRK "bless", in a cultural context in which
a pool or pond of water is a very real blessing and evidence of God's
bounty. If there is evidence that these come from really separate roots,
I have not seen it. The "root fallacy" comes in when exegetes misuse
these links to tell us something about the "real" or "original" meanings
of the words.

Wes:
=A0
To attempt to derive the meaning of brk =93to bless=94 from other roots =
with
the same spelling is to commit the infamous =93root fallacy=94 (the =
mistaken
assumption that the meaning of words is derived from their roots). The
other roots you mention which mean =93spring=94 or =93knee=94 are merely
homonyms, i.e. words which are spelled and sound alike but have distinct
meanings. These occur in every language. In English the word =93bank=94 =
and
refer to the land at the edge of a body of water or a financial
institution. It would be a mistake to believe that one of these meanings
is derived from the other. There are numerous other examples in your
Hebrew lexicon of different roots with the same spelling. They should
also be treated as distinct lexemes. Hope this helps.

Thank you, Charles. I appreciate your point about the centrality of the
Hebrew script to Jewish culture and history. I would hope that anyone
learning Hebrew is also learning to appreciate this culture and history,
certainly not to denigrate them or impose other beliefs. I applaud you
for fostering this appreciation among non-Jews. And this in itself is a
good reason to learn the Hebrew script.

Theresa, I don't know a way of doing exactly what you want. I see you
are using an older version of Outlook. At least in my version (2002) it
is possible (but tricky) to set a default font and size for all messages
which indicate (as mine did) that they are encoded as Hebrew. But this
would mean that the Latin script text would also come out larger in such
messages. Also, in some fonts the Hebrew letters are relatively larger
than the Latin, so try some different fonts and set your default
accordingly.

Liz, I see you are using Microsoft Outlook, 2000 version I think, but I
don't know what operating system underneath it. If you have Windows 2000
or XP or a Hebrew edition of earlier versions, you can simply install
the built-in Hebrew keyboard, or the SIL one using Keyman, and use that
directly in Outlook. If you have a western edition of Windows 95/98/ME,
your only chance, as far as I know, is to install Keyman and Wordlink
from www.tavultesoft.com and the Hebrew keyboard from the new SIL
system, and set up Outlook to use Word as its default editor. Even then
I don't guarantee the results.

Yes, this is almost certainly the result of your AOL software not
properly interpreting the encoding indicator on my e-mail. This was
actually =93Content-Type: text/plain;

charset=3D"windows-1255"=94, so indicating not Unicode but =
the
Windows Hebrew encoding =96 which supports vowel points but not
