[Heb-NACO] help with romanization

[Jay Rovner]

Vocalization is correct, but the hyphen separation causes the sheva to be treated as mobile. Doesn't this convert with the hyphen to di-khevat(a)?

Jastrow Dictionary p. 626-627 has an entry for kevat, and p. 306 says di-khvat- always appears with a pronominal suffix, so it appears the phrase is "Amira di-khvate," meaning something like : "a statement in agreement with him."

Dear Group,

I have a title "קונטרס אמירא דכוותא" I am not sure how of the correct romanization. Would this be correct?

K"unṭes Amira de-khaṿta"
