שושנת העמקים

1. I have never heard it pronounced gEmar, only gmar.
2. I fear we have to patiently wait for the coming of the Moshiach to  
cleanse the Hebrew grammar books of all the nonsense (schwa mobile  
etc.) accumulated in them in the last thousand years.
3. Have a good GMAR, and a good birthday.
