Presenting and reciting the Pshitta. A request....
#5
Shalama Akhi

Quote:I believe Yeshua is pronouced "Eshoo" in Eastern Aramaic. Paul Younan (the web host & director) is fluent in Eastern Aramaic. He can correct me if I am wrong.

If the word is spelt YOD-SHIN-WAW-AIN can I please ask why:

1. The YOD is pronounced as an EE, doesnt the consonant come first and then the vowel? Hence it would be YISHOO wouldn't it?

2. Why is the AIN at the end not pronounced?

Thanks!
