Da'ath

Knowledge Base

DA'AT, Hebrew (Da'aTh), meaning "Knowledge".

Pronounced: Da-ath -- a double "a" sound like that in bard. These two "a" sounds are separated by a "glottal stop", a sudden interruption of breath by very brief closing of the epiglottis. This unique sound is not used in English speech, but is sometimes used in German and in many other languages. When the Letter Ayin occurs in the middle of words, it almost always requires this effect. Accent the first syllable.
