Must you repeat it if you lost your breath and didn’t finish it in one breath?

In fact, I would argue that if reading it in one breath is going to cause some of the words to be swallowed or rendered incomprehensible, then you *should* read it with more than one breath.

March 17, 2014 8:18 pm at 8:18 pm #1008508notasheepMemberThere is a trick to it, and the person reading the megilla can take in extra breath without stopping completely by doing a little trill every couple of ‘v’ess’ – when you do a trill as opposed to keeping the same note you actually breathe in a little at the same time.
Having said that, it only just about keeps you going until ‘aseres’.

March 18, 2014 12:00 am at 12:00 am #1008511👑RebYidd23ParticipantI guess so. That’s another cruelty of Haman–giving his sons such long names.

What’s pot roast got to do with anything?

Even l’chatchila it’s a kosher reading.
Ideally, a person should do it in one breath, but if he cannot, he can do so in multiple breaths.
