Thank you, Jerry Anne, for the great explanation. Yes, it probably applies to the pronunciation but not to the romanization – for better and worse…

Because a vav holem is a long vowel, the syllable kof vav holem is an open syllable so the second kof is the beginning of the next syllable and therefore the sheva is a vocal sheva. I don’t know if this historical grammar applies to modern Hebrew pronunciation of the word. best wishes, Jerry Anne Sent from my iPad On Feb 7, 2022, at 11:30 PM, Shinohara, Jasmin via Heb-naco <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hi, all, The above is found in a couple titles by Toviyah Rubner (and is cited from him in the E.-Sh. entry for word). It has historically been romanized as ḳeloḳelim. My question is, why is the sheva under the second kof romanized as though it were a vocalized sheva? As a sheva merahef, wouldn’t it be ignored and the word romanized ḳeloḳlim? Looking forward to your input.
