Breakdown of ההונאה התחילה בחיוב לא מוכר.
Questions & Answers about ההונאה התחילה בחיוב לא מוכר.
A natural pronunciation is:
ha-hona'a hitkhila be-khiyuv lo mukar
Approximate stress:
- ha-ho-na-A
- hit-KHI-la
- be-khi-YUV
- lo mu-KAR
A few notes:
- ח in התחילה and חיוב is the throaty sound like the ch in Scottish loch or German Bach.
- מוכר here is pronounced mu-KAR, not mo-KHER.
Because the word itself is הונאה, and Hebrew adds the definite article ה־ directly to the front of a noun.
So:
- הונאה = fraud / scam
- ההונאה = the fraud / the scam
Since the noun already starts with ה, adding another ה gives ההונאה.
