Subject: [b-hebrew] Another pronunciation question
Date: Thu, 19 Feb 2009 11:39:04 -0800
I'm a simple Anglophone whose only real foreign language is French, with
a smattering of German. I quickly get lost in the IPA chart. My question
here is perhaps only clearly answerable in an audio file. If you know of
any to point me to, that would be great. Otherwise try your best with text.
What I want to know (hear; be able to produce) are the differences (if
any) between the following:
heth
soft kaph
ayin
ghayin
soft gimel
final consonant of Scottish "loch"
penultimate consonant of German "nicht"
[others you think relevant here, including from Arabic]
thanks,
Gabe Eisenstein
