dear pere,

i guess there is none. BYCH=egg is the closest i could get.

i reiterate that in principle the niqud you suggest 
is not compatible with xoq hahavarot. 
(though no rule rules out the exceptions to the rule...)

this goes back to a previous issue which i raised some time ago, 
that the niqud of nouns  and verbs follows two different sets of 
rules. though i dont have exact details, i am pretty sure this 
statement is correct. 

if i remember correctly, a non-stressed closed syllable should 
have a niqud "lene", for nouns (excluding cere); whereas for verbs 
this depends on the declension.

help from the listers will be appreciated.

Assunto: Re: [b-hebrew] sere versus segol
B-hebrew listers,

I remark that pattern consisting of three root letters + H so that the first
root letter has sere, the second has shewa and the third has qamats is that
of the Pi'el Past, third person singular feminine, of some verbs, as in

Lm 1:17 ------- P"R&FH, she spread out
Ex 23:28 -----  WG"R$FH, (and) she drove out

while the same thing with only the difference of segol in the place of
sere... these are feminine nouns having consonant het for their first root
consonant, as in

Gn 34:14 -------- XERPFH, reproach
Hos 13:15 ------  XEMDFH, desire

My question is: are there in biblical Hebrew any NOUNS fitting the pattern
of the Piel form shown in the first part of this post (namely sere in the
first root consonant)?

I think there is none.......  but maybe I'm missing some.
