may be helpful: "Some Biblical Hebrew scholars use the term Dagesh Me*h*aber
for the dagesh referred to as Atei Merahik or De*h*ik. Yeivin’s book on the
Tiberian Masorah states that a word’s first syllable takes a dagesh if (i)
it is stressed on its first syllable (which has the first full vowel,
whether or not it is preceded by a shva or hataf) and (ii) it is preceded
by word that has a conjunctive accent and ends in an open syllable with a
kamatz or a segol. It has been suggested that the Aramaic term Atei Mera*h*ik
refers to the phenomenon, whereas the Aramaic term De*h*ik refers to the
dagesh itself."
