[Heb-NACO] romanization question

[Heidi G Lerner]

That makes sense. 

In this case all iniital "sheva's" are transcrbied in Hebrew words so we would have 

"ki-meṭaḥaṿe". 

Thanks to all for you for your input.

I agree with Barry that this is ki + metahaveh (which appears as a single word on ES, and is linked to the root טחה 



However, I think the discussion is: should we consider כמטחוה- as a single preposition? “A distance of about...” As such it can combine with קשת, תוחה , etc, and wouldn’t be unlike compound prepositions such as לפני , in which the etymology as separate words is not really relevant.

I don’t see that. Question is, is the mem part of the word, as metahaveh, or a preposition: min tahaveh. 



Even Shoshan lists it under Metahaveh, unless it changed this in the newer edtions (mine is from 1969). It’s a very strange word, but it seems like the mem is part of the construction.

I would disagree: 





The correct form would be (IMO) Kime-tahave as in כמטחווי-קשת 


See Genesis 21:16 and ES, vol. 2, page 641

I would go with the first option, following ES.

I would like some help on providing the correct romanization for 





כמטחווי 





Would it be: 





ki-meṭaḥaṿe 





or 





ki-mṭaḥaṿe 





Alkalay does not show a "sheva" under the Even-Shoshan does. 








Thanks, Heidi
