[Heb-NACO] Explicit shevas in consonantal clusters in loans

[Shinohara, Jasmin]

I think in this case the sheva is communicating the it's a "silent" nun, as in, it's not SilenAd/SilenEd/SilenOd/or SilenUd, just plain Silend.  I don't know that a 246 is in order.  

Just my half-cent...  Jasmin

Folks:

 I just ran into a case that's got me thinking about shevas.  In particular, the title of the work I'm cataloging right now is samekh yud lamed nun dalet, pointed as Silend.  However, the funny thing about this is that there's a sheva under the nun.

I know what they're trying to convey: Silend.  But since there's an explicit sheva under the nun (and an implicit one under the dalet), wouldn't that make it: Silened?

This pops up from time to time, particularly with the -izm ending where sometimes publishers will put a sheva under the zayin.

No matter the outcome, a 246 is in order to account for the variant.

Let me know what you think.
