EVERYBODY (almost) HAS IT WRONG
Monday, October 24, 2022
Lesson In Alef Bais/ Dikduk -PARSHAS NOACH
Noach has a Patach under the Ches, yet we don't pronounce it Nocha.
The reason for it ,
because a Ches at the end of a word that has a patach under it is called. a patach genuva.
To pronounce a patach genuva you add a last syllable " ah" (or sefardim "wah")
Hence, Noach Koach Tapuach etc.
The same rule (Patach Genuvah) applies to a word that ends with a Hei and has a dogesh (dot)
Many people pronounce incorrectly. in Hallel ,Milifnei ELOHA Yaakov or. in Al Cheit, ELOHA Selichos
The correct pronounciation is ELOAH (Ah
not Ha )
BMG SHOULD CHANGE THEIR STATIONARY

My
nephew R. P. Perl Shlita was meorer that Beth Medrash GovoHA. is
misspelled *.
Proper
spelling would be GovoAH .
Govoah
for Zochor is spelled gimmel veis VOV HEI (Patach Genuva - AH )
Gevoha
for Nekeivah is spelled gimmel veis HEI HEI (Reg Patach under first Hei - HA )
Sukkah
(nekeiva) shehi Gevoha (2 Heis reg Patach)
Bais
Midrash (zochor) Govoah (Patach Genuvah)
*
only english spelling is incorrect - hebrew spelling is correct
gimmel veis vov hei (Patach Genuva)

Parshas Vayakhel-Can People Make Mistakes?????
Mori V'Rabi Hagaon Reb Shlomo Miller Shlita told
us:
"The Velt has two misconseptions
on Gedolim
1) A Godol can't make mistakes.
2) If they make a mistake they are not a Godol
anymore.
Both statements are untrue."
In this week’s Parsha (Vayakhel)
one of the Gedolei Hameforshim, made a mistake with the translation
of the Vav of Veosoh Betzalel. (Shmos 36 – 1)
The arrangement of the Tenach into Kapitlach
(chapters)
was done by the Christian church in the 12th
century .
There is no uniform system, where a new chapter
begins or ends.
At the end of chapter Shmos 35 it says how
Moshe spoke to
the Bnei Yisroel about Betzalel’s Chachma
that Hashem gave him, to do the Meleches Hamishkan.
A new chapter begins at Shmos 36 – 1 “ V’osoh
Betzalel – Kol Meleches Avodas Hakodesh”.
Because a new chapter
begins here, one of the Gedolei Hameforshim,
mistakenly translated And Betzalel made (past tense) – (vav hachibur)
The Targum Onkeles was also
changed from V’yabeid
(He shall do) to Vavad (He did). The Ibn Ezrah
(36 -1) and Rashi in Ms.Makos 12a both say , V’osoh is a command
( future) And Betzalel shall make
etc. V’osoh is a continuation from the previous chapter.(mehapech + chibur)
In the name of
the M’hril Diskin it is said “When you are
Ma’avir Sidrah you should say in the Targum
V’yabeid and not the way it is printed in the Chumashim* “
Vavad” otherwise you won’t be yotzei Shnayim Mikrah.
*The new Oz Vehodor Chumashim corrected the
Targum to V'Yabeid.

The Dikduk Matzav

No Dikduk

Wasting days learning various different בינינים is not important”.
The Tashbatz 1:33 writes ,” Not knowing Dikduk doesn’t reduce
the Ma’alos of a Talmid Chacham”.
In Shu”t Ha’Rema (5-6-7) there are exchanges of letters from the Maharshal who criticizes the Rema for writing Teshuvos with Dikduk mistakes." כי כתביו הם חומה פרוצה לרוב בנוכח ונסתר"
The Rema admits to him that his writing is not fluent. He says that he is careful to make his point clear and understood, and that is more important than proper grammar. Only a Sefer Torah, needs to be exact with the wording.
The Rema continues , he is not trying
to brag about it but he never learned Dikduk in his life.
It seems, the lack of Dikduk study goes back, way before the Maskilim reintroduced it.

Boneh or Bonai
ובני ירושלים עיר הקדש במהרה בימינו
At
the end of the Bracha Rachaim/Uvnai Yerushalayim,
the
proper way to say it is Bonai(Tzerei) Yerushalayim
or
Boneh (Segol & not Tzeirei) Verachamov Yerushalayim.
If
Verachamov is added then it is Boneh not Bonai.*
The אמן
at the end is not part of the Bracha, therefore
one
should pause between Yerushalayim and Amen.
(Many
Sidurim are printed incorrectly)

אין דבר
אין דבר
R.
(Shlomo) Zalmen Hena (רז"ה) was one of the
greatest Balei Dikduk. The Pri Megadim calls
him “Harav Hamedakdek Hagadol” (O. Ch. 56)
It
is said that the Vilna Gaon acquired his knowledge
in dikduk from the seforim of
the Rezah.
In
the year 1725, the Rezah printed
his Siddur “Bais Tefilah” with his pirush “Sha’arei Tefillah”.
The Siddur has a Haskamah from
the Chacham Zvi and other Gedolim.
Wherever
the dikduk was incorrect, he changed the nusach. He also changed from leshon Chachamim (KLUM) to leshon Torah
(DOVOR) .
Most
of the changes in the Bal Hatanya’s Siddur supposedly are based
on the Rezah’s Siddur “Bais Hatefilah”
.
The Shu”t Minchas Yitzchok
(10 – 16) criticizes the Siddurim printers for changing
the nusach from Klum to Dovor.
|
The Rezah was
probably the first person to tamper with the nusach hatefilah. He held that dikduk overrides the nusach
established by the anshei knesses hagedola. The Yavetz (R. Yakov Emden ) criticized him strongly. He published a sefer (לוח ארש) whose sole purpose was to point out the mistakes and argue on the Rezah . In his Hakdama he writes “It is unbelievable what he (Rezah) did. He destroyed and broke fences, moved into territory that doesn’t belong to him and there he destroyed and built without permission. He made changes whenever he felt like it. He had the העזה (chutzpa) to tamper with the nusach of the Anshei Knesses Hagedola”. The Yavetz also claimed that the haskama from his father, the Chacham Zvi was forged, in order to make for himself a great name (Rezah) . R. Dovid Yitzchaki claimed that all the other Haskamos were also forged. R. Mordechai Duseldorff wrote a Kunteres (Kunteres Hahasogos) with 192 proofs against the Rezah. The Kunteres has a Haskama from the Noda B’yehuda . After the Rezah another maskil and medakdek , Itzik Stanov appeared and followed the Rezah. He too changed the nusach according to dikduk and from leshon chazal to leshon Tanach. (Leisheiv Basukah to Losheves Basukah) etc. This trend continued. In some Chasidic courts, they added and subtracted from the original nusach of the Anshei Knesses Hagedola. Gradually, even in the non Chasidic siddurim, many changes crept in from the Rezah and Itzik Stanov. Untill 300 years ago, every siddur , "Yisgadal Veyiskadash" was pronounced with a patach. Rezah changed it to Yisgadeil Veyiskadeish with a tzeirei. The Mishna Verura quotes the Pri Megodim who quotes the Rezah to say it with a tzeirei. Hence, in most Litvishe Yeshivos they pronounce it with a tzeirei. Some claim, that the first to introduce Mashiv Haruach Umorid HAGOSHEM with a קמץ was Itzik Stanov. Until then everybody said HAGESHEM with a סגול. It is hard to believe and to accept that some parts in our Nusach Hatefillah has changes in them which were done by Maskilim. |

3M - Misspelled, Mistranslated or Mispronounced?
3M - Misspelled,
Mistranslated or Mispronounced?
Those learning Gemoro,
especially Daf Yomi who for the past year have been learning the three בבות
in Nezikin are familiar with the words
זבין (with a Yud) and זבן (without the Yud). זבין means sold
and זבן means bought.
Therefore חד גדיא דזבין
אבא should be translated, my father sold, or change the spelling to דזבן.
Mori V'Rabi Harav Hagaon R.
Shlomo Miller Shlita said, there is a third possibility to keep
the spelling with a Yud but change the pronunciation to DEZVIN instead
of DEZABIN.
The translation will change
to " One kid the "purchase" of my father.

Please don't pray to destroy our city ח"ו
Don't Daven ח"ו for
the destruction of Yerushalayim.
According to the (מנחת שי (תהלים פו:ב, (and others)
In the Tefillah of אתה יצרת*
at " ולפי שחטאנו -- חרבה עירנו "
You should make sure to
pronounce the Reish of
Chorevo with a שוא נע (Chorevo).
By pronouncing the
Reish with a שוא נח (silent)
(Chorvo) the translation
changes to "Because we sinned --
you should (ח"ו )
destroy our city". (imperative)
The actual translation is,
"Because we sinned our city was
destroyed (past tense). ובני ירושלים
עיר הקדש במהרה בימינו

Dikduk Lesson
According to Harav Hagaon R.Chaim Kanyevsky Shlita:
Females should say Moidoh Ani Lefonecha .
(Kometz under Dalet) and not Modeh Ani
Many others agree
Artscroll Siddur for women (Ohel Sarah) it says Modeh

ובנה ירושלים dikduk lesson of the day
ובנה ירושלים עיר הקדש במהרה בימינו
At the end of the Bracha
Rachaim/Uvnai Yerushalayim,
the proper way to say it is
Bonai(Tzerei) Yerushalayim
or Boneh (Segol &
not Tzeirei) Verachamov Yerushalayim.
If Verachamov is added then
it is Boneh not Bonai.*
The Amen at the end is not part of the Bracha, therefore
one should pause between
Yerushalayim and Amen.

incorrectly)

The Chavas Yair On Dikduk
לז"נ הבחור הקדוש

The Chavas Yair #124 writes :
“Learning is important and necessary only for the basics. (Zochor/Nekeivah,
Ovar /Osid, Yochid/ Rabim, Nochach /Nistar,etc.)

In Shu”t Ha’Rema (5-6-7) there are exchanges of letters from the Maharshal who criticizes the Rema for writing Teshuvos with Dikduk mistakes.
The Rema admits to him that his writing is not fluent. He says that
he is careful to make his point clear and understood, and that is more important than proper grammer.
Only a Sefer Torah, needs to be exact with the wording. The Rema continues , he is not trying to brag about it but he never learned Dikduk in his life.
It seems, the lack of Dikduk study goes back, way before the Maskilim reintroduced it.

Why The Rebbe Was Wrong At The Chumash Party
SEE HERE POST ABOUT CHUMASH PARTY
A Vav at the beginning of a word can serve as three functions
1) Vav Hachibur ,connecting to the previous word or sentence (and)
2 ) Vav Hamehapech , reverse future to past or past to future.
3) Vav Hachibur + Hamehapech , both functions.( 1+2)
Examples
1) Moshe V’aharon _ Moshe and Aharon [Chibur]
2) Yikrah = he will call (future) – Vayikrah = he called (past) [Mehapech]
2) Osoh = he made (past) _ Veosoh = he shall make (future) [Mehapech]
3) Yomar = he will say (future) -- Vayomar = a) he said (past) – b) and he said (past+ and) [Mehapech +Chibur ]
Vayikrah is a new Parsha and Chumash. The Vav can’t be a Chibur it has no connection to the previous Parsha. The Vav can act only as a Mehapech.
Therefore the correct translation is He called , not And he called.
