<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Mitpalelim is derived from the binyan hitpa’el while nokhehim is from banyan pa’al. If you follow that it should be like lomdim, i.e. nokhhim. It is true that
we say it nokhehim because it’s impossible to pronounce otherwise, but the question is whether to transliterate how we say the word or according to its grammatical writing.

<p class="MsoNormal">Hebrew is a living language. I don't know the grammatical rule (Sheva na? Sheva merahef?), but modern Hebrew speakers are saying Nokhehim. Try to pronounce two Khaf or Het sounds without a vowel between them.<o:p></o:p></p>
