[Heb-NACO] Nokhehim? Nokhhim?

[Yossi Galron]

Bob,
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.
I know my answer will not satisfy you. Maybe someone on the list will be
more satisfying.
Happy Passover/Easter
Yossi
