Difference in dialects Ashkenazi Sephardic etc I just undid some edits that added some new information but did so in a seemingly biased way I m unsure whether the factual information is correct so I wanted to open up discussion here to see if it could be added in without also expressing a POV Here are the parts I removed There is a distinction between Sephardi and Mizrahi Hebrew Here is how the editor expressed it Sephardi Hebrew used by Sephardi Jews of the Iberian Peninsula North Africa Turkey and occasionally Iran and France preserved certain aspects of the Tiberian pronunciation The schwa is pronounced in all places as a short e and the dagesh only applies to certain letters The tav is always pronounced as t with or without dagesh except in certain dialects where it is pronounced as a th without a dagesh The gutturals are pronounced correctly i e eth is pronounced correctly and NOT as the ch in Bach like it is pronounced in Modern Hebrew There are two possibilities the difference disappeared over time in the Sephardic pronunciations or it never was there in the first place the pronunciation stems from a separate Hebrew dialect which always was there and which e g the masoretes did not use as reference Mizrahi Hebrew is spoken by the Jews of Arab Countries i e Iraq Syria etc excluding Yemen It is similar to Sephardi Hebrew except that it recognizes all double letters i e taw and thaw gimel and ghimel daleth and dhaleth etc and pronounces the Vav as a w as it was originally pronounced Is this information correct Is there any indication that some pronunciations are more original or correct Yemenite Hebrew is very similar to Mizrahi Hebrew with some distinctions Yemenite Hebrew which thought by some to preserve almost all the Classical Hebrew pronunciation was barely known where the revival took place It is almost exactly the same as Mizrahi Hebrew The only differences are the pronunciation of the gimel as jimel and slight differences in the pronunciation of vowels Is this information sourced enough to warrant including Is it covered by the mention of subsets of pronunciation Thanks
