Transliteration Scheme
Though most connected passages quoted from Hebrew and Aramaic sources have been written in the original spelling, the following transliteration scheme has also been used:
א alef Not indicated at the beginning of words; medially and finally, indicated by apostrophe (’).
ב beyth With a dagesh, “b” in “boy”; without a dagesh, “v” in “vow”
ג gimmel Always “g” in “go”
ד dalet Always “d” in “do”
ה hé “H” as in “hay” initially and medially; finally, only where pronounced (i.e., when hé serves only to indicate the presence of a final vowel, it is not indicated)
ו vav When used consonantally, “v” in “vow”; when used vocalically, see below
ז zayin Always “z” in “zoo”
ח cheith Always “ch” as is “Bach”
ט teth Always “t” in “toy”
י yud Consonantally, “y” in “yes”; vocalically, see below.
כ,ך kaf With dagesh, “k” in “key”; without dagesh, “ch” in “Bach”.
ל lamed Always “l” in “leaf”
מ,ם mem Always “m’ in “man”
נ,ן nun Always “n” in “noon”
ס samech Always “s” in “sit”
ע ‘ayin Always indicated by single open quotation mark (‘).
פ, ף pé With dagesh, “p” in “pot”; without, “f” in “life”
צ,ץ tzadi Always “tz” in “Schultz”
ק quf Always “q” as in “Qur’an”
ר reish Always “r” in “row”
ש shin, sin When shin, always “sh” in “shoe”; when sin, always “s” in “sit”
ת tav With dagesh, always “t” in “to”; without dagesh, always “th” in “thin”
An intervocalic consonant with dagesh is generally indicated by doubling the consonant (e.g. shabbath, as opposed to the verb shavath).
Vowels: The vowels in general have the “Sephardic” values (though tzere is usually marked “é”, except when it is written as a diphthong, “ei” or “ey.” When yud is used to indicate a diphthong, it is transliterated “y” if it one of the root consonants, otherwise “i”.
Whether or not shva na is specifically indicated depends whether it is usually pronounced in contemporary speech; as a rule, prefixes with shva na are written with an apostrophe, e.g. b’, k’ l’, m’ ; prefixes with other vowel marks are set off by dashes, e.g. ha-aretz, ba-‘am.
