Aalah/Aaloh/Alaha
#3
Shlama,

Light Way if you're new to Aramaic and Aramaic Primacy in general, I'm wondering if you have the fonts to view the text provided by Akhi Stephen. You can get fonts from the site here or from Stephen's site at <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://dukhrana.com/">http://dukhrana.com/</a><!-- m -->

The square Hebrew for the Aramaic "Alaha" (or Aloha) is:
????????

There are several languages that have similar sounding names with the same meaning. I have a Tibetan friend who says "Ila" and "Ilah-ah". Some Syriac Orthodox say "Aloha" and I have some Syriac friends who pronounce it as "Oloho".

Going to go off topic for a second: Akhi Stephen, for some reason your font isn't showing up for me. It's just posting the raw characters without the font. I have Estrangelo installed on my old computer though.

Push b'shlama,
Ya'aqub Younan-Levine
