It is still quite possible that what is written in ancient books reflects special, ritual pronunciation and singing. However, even in this case the restoration of this cultural layer of ancient life is interesting. Its rhythm is slow, related to the natural rhythm of breathing, not heartbeat. The moments of air intake should be incorporated naturally in such speech as breaks between phrases, for example. The excess of air, which has to be exhaled before an air intake in such break, could be used for some energetic emphasis in the end of a phrase - a special ending intonation.
Slow speech uses special markers - hard and short breaks of the stream of air.
These breaks can be produced by lips, a tongue, a throat and muscles closing nasal cavity. This second type of interrupter is rarely used in fast speech - this dynamic interrupter needs a relatively long period to be executed. Some remnant of it in fast speech is denoted in writing with double consonant. However, it was widely used in ancient Hebrew. This kind of interrupt requires a vowel before and after it.
