Examples

Dagesh main Historically, the consonants ב beth, ג gimel, ד daleth, כ kaf, פ pe and ת tav each had two sounds: one hard ( plosive ), and one soft ( fricative ), depending on the position of the letter and other factors. Source: Internet

They are influenced by the practice of two great kabbalists, the Ari (cited in the Be’eir Heitev 555:1) and Rav Shalom Sharaby (cited by the Kaf HaChaim 555:3). Source: Internet

"You know, that I tired am.") Non-finite verbs (infinitives and participles) generally appear in final position: * compound past tenses ::Ech hunn en Hutt kaf. Source: Internet
