Because there is  a “see also” in E.S. and it explains that the ב is a prefix 
like בשביל – it should be Bi-gelal and Bi-shevil (and not Biglal or Bishvil)

Hi, Haim, bi-gelal would be correct if the ב is considered a prefix to the word 
גלל. But since there is a direct entry for the word as a whole, I’m asking if 
we should romanize it as a whole word instead of as a compound word.

Thanks, Jasmin

I think it should be “biglal” and not “bi-gelal” because of the sheva being 
treat as a sheva nach (which is how it is in the Alcalay).  This is in my 
humble opinion.

Hello Collective Wisdom, please remind me: if there’s an entry in E-Sh., even 
if it ends with a “see also”, is that sufficient justification for romanizing 
the word as a word as opposed to a compound? E.g. בגלל has a direct entry, so 
I’d think it would be romanized biglal (NOT bigelal because as a whole word, 
the sheva would be considered merahef, ignored in romanization), but the entry 
also says “see גלל”. So which is it: Biglal or Bi-gelal?

Thanks, Jasmin
