In Hebrew transliteration names with the syllable VO are usually not written with 2 or more Vav's, simply because טרוור can mean also Trever, and to get the right syllable you'd need too many Vav's.<br />Devonshire = דבונשיירAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51454407843998158.post-1038058296607887112010-06-06T01:24:28.004+03:002010-06-06T01:24:28.004+03:00is it the same spelling in the hebrew characters w...is it the same spelling in the hebrew characters when it's MIKHAELA?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51454407843998158.post-75459461638068476182010-04-05T18:51:43.002+03:002010-04-05T18:51:43.002+03:00This reminds me of the time when I received my fir...This reminds me of the time when I received my first ever Hebrew lesson book. <br /><br />I had never seen Hebrew before and I looked at the alphabet and tried to spell my name by substituting the Hebrew letters for the English letters. My name is Michelle so I think I got something like mem-vowel-chet-hey-vowel-lamed-lamed-vowel all in a row. <br /><br />Also, I was about 8 and never got that tattooed anywhere on my body.mesh2https://www.blogger.com/profile/04127484403955165496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51454407843998158.post-29144153623031317562009-12-20T02:04:21.145+02:002009-12-20T02:04:21.145+02:00At first I thought the bottom word was טבור - bell...At first I thought the bottom word was טבור - belly button.. :)ailaGnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51454407843998158.post-89329587295183640032009-12-19T10:45:28.520+02:002009-12-19T10:45:28.520+02:00Writing Het as ch is a very common practice, it...Writing Het as ch is a very common practice, it's not considered a mistake.

I see a lot of people in Israel transcribe their own name with a ch instead of the Khet, so you get a Chagit when you mean "Kha-geet". I didn't imagine the opposite can happen. The idea of transcribing a vowel to an aleph is similarly insane.Erezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09761069712229298384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51454407843998158.post-77822972044133997362009-12-02T18:10:43.756+02:002009-12-02T18:10:43.756+02:00I don't think it's necessarily better, Tre...I don't think it's necessarily better, Trevor can be written either way.
