Kamatz

But I did say Nasiti instead of Nisiti.

Nadav, as an expert on Lashon, what's the difference between Nisiti, Chirik under the Nun, and Nasiti with a Kamatz or maybe you said a Patach under the Nun?

Well, ni-si-ti is obviously a piel, and na-si-ti is a kal that got mangled with a piel and is kind of an absurd form.

All right, that was pretty good stuff.

Shabbat shalom.

I'm using a machzor from Koran, and they follow some of the manuscripts that instead of having a komatz on nikdosh, they have a patach.

So their nusach reads, If you are pronouncing Havaras Sefardit, you won't make a distinction between a Komatz and a Patach, so it'll sound the same to you, but still as you're reading it, if you see a Patach or you see a Komatz, you should understand that these are different forms of the verb.

The Pasuk comes from Yeshayahu Perikhei Pasuk Tet Zion.

To understand a little bit better how it fits, read also from Pasuk Tet Vav.

now we move to our quote our quote is the opposite whereas man is bowed down hashem is the opposite hashem is exalted this pasuk is in direct juxtaposition to the one before And you'll notice that the verb forms are parallel.

We start with a Vav consecutive in the imperfect, vayig bah, and then we finish with a verb without the Vav consecutive, nik dosh.

The better manuscripts have the Komatz, Nikdash.

Maybe in the next class, we'll get into what are the tenuot ketanot and what are the tenuot kedalot that cause the dageshim or not.

for there not to be a dagesh, okay? But kamatz doesn't...

Kamatz is a tinwa gidola, unless it's a kamatz katan, in which case it's a tinwa kitana.

What's a kamatz katan? It's a O sound, korban.

Oh.
