Hebrew Alephbet: Ayin, Peh, Tsadi, Qof, Resh, Shin, Tav

(This article is still in draft form. I hope to improve it later.)


In four previous Sunday essays, we have looked at the Hebrew alphabet and covered the first fifteen letters. In this fifth essay, we finish off the alphabet, looking at the last seven, ayin, peh, tsadi, qof, resh, shin, tav. If one is willing to accept an alphabet of 23 letters, not 22, we can add sin, which has apparently evolved from shin.


16. Ayin




17. Peh



18. Tsadi
19. Qof



20. Resh




21. Shin




21b. Sin



22. Tav

In addition to the Hebrewpod101 video, Christian publisher Zondervan has a channel which includes this lecture in Hebrew. I am also using this text on basic Hebrew, Read Hebrew in 22 Days or Less by Seltzer, Lizorkin-Eyzenberg and Shir.
