1. I am not a rule maker, nor an "explainer" of speech transformations, but I think that speakers tend to economize and minimize the attachments. Look at the factual table for the act HYH: ANIY E-HYEH, ATAH TI-HYEH, HU YI-HYEH, ANU NI-HYEH, ATEM TI-HY-U, HEM YI-HY-U. 2. Consider also ABIYW, 'his father', with a consonant W, versus IMW, 'his mother', read IMO. 3. This may be of some interest. By edict of the Hebrew "Academy" the "correct" un-punctuated spelling is now היריון HYRAYON, 'pregnancy', with a Yod after the H. I suspect that this leads some to read now the Cere in הריון HERAION (Ruth 4:13) as Xirik. Isaac Fried, Boston University On Jan 6, 2013, at 3:24 PM, Norman Cohn wrote:
