<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">The quotation from this post is a literal quotation from Yeivin's Introduction to the Tiberian Masorah. This was intended by Yeivin to be an introductory survey, and he is careful to mention almost every phenomenon.
The svara about the two names he quotes in the name of Dotan. But he himself says there that the phenomenon has not been studied in detail.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">As far as Dotan goes, most of his svaras are against the Masorah and against the best evidence, and Yeivin does not accept most of them.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">In his detailed book on the Aleppo codex, Yeivin does not mention either ate merahiq or d'hiq.<br>

<br>
Why does the kaf in "kesef" have a dagesh?<br>
<br>
I'm guessing that the answer is simple and not noteworthy (because my <br>
tikkun, which has notes all over the place, makes no comment on this).<br>
