Subject:
[Avodah] Shva Na's etc.


As sha"tz during my aveilus for my mother a"h I daven out of the large 
AS siddur. It has started me trying to do, one could say at long last, 
trying to do shva na's.

I also was caught once saying l'eyla in kaddish me'l'ra. Embarrasing. 
The AS does not indicate me'l'ra's.

The siddur I use personally, the German Roedelheim siddur, does not 
identify either.

I am soliciting recommendations for an Ashkenaz siddur that will help me 
out with these (and perhaps other) enhancements of tefillah.

Thanks!

KT,

YGB

My tallis bag usually has a pocket-size Siddur Tefillah Simanim, from
the people who gave you the tiqun with a parallel name and format.

I noticed from discussions on Mesorah that R Seth Mandel (PhD Semitic
Languages) disagrees with Simanim less often than ArtScroll. (But I
CCed RSM to let him speak for himself, if he so chooses.)

Additionally, Simanim has nice notes in the margin, kind of rashei peraqim
to keep kavanah on track. (As expected, I don't always agree with their
decisions, but more often than most.)

It *can* be a bit of an information overload. For someone our generation
or older, I would also recommend the full size edition, as even with
reading glasses, seeing all the simanim in the pocket-size is a challenge.

So, if that's too busy, Koren.

Moving beyond your actual request:

If you want to see what the 19th cent O-Haskalishe gramarians (including
R Shlomo-Zalman Hanau [Raza"h] and R Wolf Heidenheim [Ravva"h]) did to
Nusach Ashkenaz, you need an Eizor Eliyahu. The footnotes contrast older
nusachos to their and the Gra's emendations.

Tir'u baTov!

[Avodah] passing a cemetery


If one passes a cemetery every day on their commute to work but their brain
doesn't process it (that's how our vision actually works), do they then
make a bracha when going to a cemetery for a funeral?
