Hi Heidi,

In looking at the Jastrow, it is vocalized as:

מַטְאֲטֵא

Looks like your Romanization is correct.

Hi all,



I want to determine the proper ALA/LC romanization for מטאטא



My thought is:



Maṭʾaṭe



My thinking (based on most recent ES vocalizaton) is that דwhen there are two shevaim following each other the 2nd is a "שבא נע" and the first is a  "שבא נח".  Furtive vowels are considered to be "שבא נע"



Any thoughts will be appreciated.



Thanks, Heidi
