An IMPROPER ARTICLE?<br><br>
How about "zera veqatzir"?<br><br>
Perhaps the answer above is not accurate always, and at times not even in
the same passuq?<br><br>
Or "Vekhakh haya moneh, . . . ahat ve'arba . . . , ahat
vashesh"? Out of seven vavei hahibbur, two have qamatz, four
have sheva, and one has qubbutz/shuruq/malafum.<br><br>
BTW, in the hafatara blessing, Ashkenazim say "ha'emmet
vatzedeq," while Seardim say "ha'emmet
vehatzedeq."</b></font><font face="Verdana"></blockquote>
