Should we establish a practice whereby we look first in Even-Shoshan? If Even-Shoshan provides us with an example of one of these types of words, we transcribe it as it appears. If a foreign loan word beginning with b/v, k/kh, p/f does not appear with a prefix in Even-Shoshan,perhaps we should develop some sort of guideline governing its transcription.
