Thanks.  good point.
The root is *not* heth-waw-samekh, but is heth-samekh-heh.

When you render a Hebrew shoresh into English letters, can you please spell
out the letters you mean? For example, you could write, ches-vav-sin --
because I am not sure what you do mean here.  Is "sh" a sound meant to
represent a shin or is it a sin (somech?) plus a ches?  Thank you.

Nusach S'farad (of the Ashk'nazim) says the abovementioned pasuk before
maariv: "Vaya'z'rem H' vay'fal'tem... ki chasu vo."

There is a machlokes had'fusim  :-)  over the trop on "ki chasu".  The
Koren, at least, puts a hyphenates it with a makaf: "ki-chasu".  And
everyone seems to agree that the stress on "chasu" is mil'el: "CHAsu".

Now, from the very little I know about nasog achor, the rule that stress
moves to be mil'el when the next word has its first syllable stressed, I
understand thatthat does not occur in a hyphenated word.  Correct me if I'm
wrong, please.

Yet "CHAsu", if nasog achor has not been applied to it, means "pitied",
which makes no sense in context.  (I'm not sure what Yonasan is saying; no
one else translates the word.)

What's going on?

Achad shahat,
