I checked out the links you gave, but none of them answer my question.

I just want a simple list of the order of the vowels. What you gave, while
I'm sure is alphabetized properly, doesn't tell me how to. I don't want to
have to try to figure it out from a list, as by doing so I could make a
mistake.

I just need a simple list like "patach, segol, etc".


___________

If you are asking or looking for something simple I would say:

1. shewa
2. hatef-segol
3. hatef-patah
4. hatef-qamats
5. hireq
6. tsere
7. segol
8. patah
9. qamats
10. holem
11. qubuts

This is the official vowel sorting order, stated by the Academy of the Hebrew
Language.

Yes, you are quite right.
Go to www.oham.net/out/N-t/N-t.html
or www.oham.net/out/N-d/N-d.html

I think it must work.

I have a question in regards to putting Hebrew words in
alphabetical order.

I assume that ordering the words according to the letters would be
the
first step, but how do you handle the points (dagesh and vowel)?

What is the ordering criteria when you have two or more words with
the
same letters, but different points?

So, for example, if you have the words:
)FBAL
)FB"L
)"BEL
):ABFL

Or if you have:
)FDAM
)FDFM
)FDOM
):EDOM
)ODEM

How would they be alphabetized?



Look at www.oham.net/out/N-t.html
You will find the right vowel and other points order stated by the
Academy of the Hebrew Language.
