Subject: [b-hebrew] Hebrew Language Academy on "gilleti"
Date: Thu, 28 Jan 2010 15:48:06 +0200
Perhaps of some interest to the list--
the Hebrew Language Academy has confirmed/approved the use of the
[e] vowel in suffix-tense pi``el forms of lamed-yud roots as 'acceptable,
correct, modern Hebrew'. e.g., gilleti, niqqeti.
Naturally, they based some of their decision on the occurrences of such
forms in biblical Hebrew [MT].
