I’ll be happy to update the list, but will have to find someone in Princeton who can do it: I gave the list to someone who has left long ago, and the systems have changed considerably since. So, don’t hold your breath.
Rachel From: Heb-naco [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Shinohara, Jasmin Sent: Thursday, June 30, 2016 10:22 AM To: Hebrew Name Authority Funnel Subject: Re: [Heb-NACO] romanization of כמעט Thank you so much for weighing in, Joan! Ki-me'at it is. (LC, please take note…) With a hat-tip to Rachel Simon, there is such a list of Romanization FAQ’s<http://library.princeton.edu/departments/tsd/katmandu/hebrew/roman/errors.html> (it’s now also linked on the wiki), but it does need to be updated to reflect the latest E-Sh. (specifically, מעין, which as of the 2012 update is now ma'ayan). Rachel, would you please consider adding ki-me'at to the list? Jasmin From: Heb-naco [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Joan Biella Sent: Wednesday, June 29, 2016 9:03 PM To: Hebrew Name Authority Funnel Subject: Re: [Heb-NACO] romanization of כמעט If you can find the word by looking under both K and M, then you romanize according to the "more analytical" interpretation--ki-me'at in this case--so that a search under "me'at" will discover the phrase. The same words cause trouble over and over. Perhaps we should have a list of "words frequently misromanized," which of course would have to be checked and re-checked whenever a new Even-Shoshan edition comes out! This might give some romanizers added confidence ... but I realize others would never think to consult the list.

I think it should be Ki-me'at - the entry in E.Sh. under מעט is much more elaborate then half the line under כמעט (The same is also in the מילון אריאל המקיף of 2007) Joseph (Yossi) Galron-Goldschläger E-Mail: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> or [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Tel.: (614) 292-3362<tel:%28614%29%20292-3362>, Fax: (614)292-1918<tel:%28614%29292-1918> Lexicon of Modern Hebrew Literature: http://go.osu.edu/hebrewlit On Wed, Jun 29, 2016 at 5:36 PM, Shinohara, Jasmin <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: E-Sh. now has an entry for the word as itself, though it maintains a “see” reference to מעט.
