Kirk,

When building your tagged Hebrew texts what do you do with a medial nun in
the final position? Do you put it in your database as a final? I know this
isn't a common thing, perhaps a few instances in the DSS. The question came
up in a dispute between F.M. Cross - E.Eschel and A. Yardeni over reading
the last word of line 8 of an ostracon from Qumran. I will bring that up in
a different thread.

thanks for your clarifications about K&B,

greetings, Clay
