hershi, I’m unsure if you were referring to me or 147 with your reply. And it’s wonderful that you have a different opinion, just please state it, so I can understand what your opinion is instead of just saying that others are incorrect.

And from what I’ve learned, the “oi” sound for a cholom is, actually, wrong. Granted, many people pronounce as such anyway, and just don’t place a lot of emphasis on Hebrew dikduk in general, which I really don’t have a problem with. I only have a problem with it when the pronunciation actually changes the meaning of the word.
