Michiel,

Firstly, a reminder that you need to add your first name and surname to the
bottom of each post. This is just our standard B-Hebrew etiquette.

Now to your question. It is often the case that when a yodh carries a shewa,
it resists gemination - that is, it is frequently not doubled.

Regards,
