Thread: Areas of Expertise

No I didn't think it was in the Bible, but what would the Hebrew pronunciation of that name be?

I.e., The English phonetic pronunciation of that name is \ˈstü-ərt, (courtesy of Mirriam Webster online), or even Stooert. I have seen the Hebrew letters of the name, & tried to convert them on a website for Hebrew to English but I couldn't get the hang of it.

The Hebrew letters were (if I read them correctly) Shin; Lamed; Mem; He.

those letters form the name shlomo - solomon the king(son of david).
i didnt know steward is actually solomon - in hebrew shlomo.
if you want direct meaning - look at my previous post.
and we say stewart just like you say.
names with different pronunciation are mostly biblical.
daniel(in hebrew just read phoneticly the letters - DA-NI-EL) isaac - yitzkhak(like in the ghengis khan kh),abraham -avraham - is that what you mean?

Thanks infested. If I ever get a pic of the actual Hebrew letters, I'll post it. Maybe I read them wrong, but thanks for the legwork anyway.

It looked something like that, but I don't remember exactly. You did answer the question, it's just that I'm not entirely sure that Stewart would be Solomon. Solomon is definitely Shlomo, like Samuel is Shmuel. That's why I want to get a closeup pic of the letters.

I'm an expert at swords and some other antique weapons, more so in regards to their construction and historical context then their use, though I do know a bit about swordfighting as well.

Also, being Swedish, I can answer questions about the Swedish language and culture if needed.

I guess my area of expertise would be Biology, as I'm doing a Bachelor on that field, but it isn't exactly the most exiting thing to intertwine into a novel.
