The first means “to attack”; the second means “valid, or in force” (as in a passport). The inclination of the first is tekafo (as in, “he attacked”); the second is tokpo (as in “the passport/milk/etc. has expired”).

Subject: [Heb-NACO] Tekafo vs. Tokpo: round 2<br>
<br>
Folks:<br>
<br>
I have a book here by Shabtai ben Meir, ha-Kohen, 1621-1662 where the first word in the title is tav-kuf-peh-vav. The last time this book came up, about ten years ago (maybe longer), the decree was that the form we were to use was "tekafo" in this particular
instance.<br>
<br>
Anyhow, I checked in the 2007 EJ, Lo and behold, they cite the book as "Tokfo kohen." Discounting the "f" (Ester 10:2 places a dagesh in the peh), it looks to me like this is an authoritative stance that we didn't have the last time the question was asked.<br>
<br>
So: tekafo or tokpo?<br>
