Please pardon my elementary question on this.
If I rewrite Jehovah (correcting J sound), it would be
YeHoWa
with H sound there but last H sound silent.
Do I see same way Yahweh is in actual pronunciaton
YaH-we
with my understanding of H here present but not quite English h sound
and the last h is silent.
Probably I asked before somewhere, but I am afraid I did get it clear on this.
If I may, is there any summary I can find on arguments against Yahweh
as the pronunciation of the tetragrammaton? Would it be less accurate
than, say, Ye-Ho-Wa(h)?
Thank you for your help.
Oun Kwon.
