Fascinating. So Nusach Ashkenaz follow the Mechaber here?
<br><br>
While Sefardim say "<i>Yom Chag Shemini Atzeres
Hazeh</i>"<br><br>
And Nusach Sefard (Chassidishe) is "<i>Yom Shemini Atzeres Hachag
Hazeh</i>" <br><br>
I strongly recollect there is another well known halacha where the
Ashkenaz follow the Mechaber and Sefardim follow the Rema, but I can't
for the life of me remember it. (I learned it from RS"Mandel .
. . perhaps he's reading this and can recall???)<br><br>
