"If you see a guy with a cheap rental car and a tripod set up along the side of the road...It is me! I am up to 19 holders but some of then turned out kind of bad. "
How bad are they? Is the end tape off or loose or are they just older wooden ones that have worn out? Some things can be fixed and some cannot. If you are not sure bring them along for a consult on them, everyone will give advice about whether to fix or toss.
the part that opens on both sides where the sheets comes in is loose, I put some tape around but I am not sure if light will go in. I am bringing all of them and tape. A guy here in NYC was selling them at $4, but they are old and dusty.
Get some bookbinding tape, or some gaffers tape - black. You can easily replace the tape. Avoid bumps, creases,...anything that would keep the holder from seating properly.
Are they plastic or wood? If wood, check to ensure not warped. Slight warping will prevent light tight seal when in the camera. A little stray light goes a long way in ruining an image.
Number your holders and notch the flaps with a notch code. That way you can track any (plastic or wood) that have problems. Discard those. Or if you don't wish to notch, then number the holders and keep detailed notes so you can figure out which ones might be giving problems (this does not work as well if you make more than 2 exposures of an image for any reason).
Don,where do you notch your film holders,I hate to create new light leaks in them. Ilike the idea of notching them, it works good for my Hassleb. mags.
Here is a good example of how this is done. It is merely a knife or file created notch on the bottom flap of the film holder. Everybody has a different system of notches ... just so no two holders have the same notch. The notches show up on the margin of the negative.
Here's the link: Link
Yeah the butzi url gives a good picture.
What you'll need to decide is...how many holders are you going to have? If more than a few, putting a notch code sequence is useful.
Some use a simple binary code (with equal spacing between notch sites.).
If you have as many 8x10 holders as I do, you'll be wanting something more than binary. (You can never have enough holders...)
If this is the case, take an index card and make a code of locations. say an area for 10's, a location for a 5, and a location where 1-4 unitary notches can be made, and one more location for A and B side of the holder(or some other means of telling which side).....so 8x10 holder 76sideA would be 50notch, 2-10 notch, a 5 notch and one unitary notch, and the A/B location unnotched.
Or you could use binary 1001100-1 ... or whatever you deem of use as a system.
Don't use simple drilled holes like St Ansel once proposed -- Sexton tried this long ago and showed me some results back in 1988 where the holes didn't expose fully, giving faulty numbers. Use notches instead. Yes there are cases where notches don't show -- for instance if the notched area fell on a zone 0..totally dark in the image with nothing in the negative. I rarely saw this.
A hint on fidelity holders -- notch with a triangular file, fairly deeply, then take an x-acto(tm) knife and clean out the fuzz from the notch that the file leaves using the edge of the blade on the edges of the notch. And if you're a stickler for an even smoother finish, get a little xylene (hardware store cans, or small quantities in the form of liquid, not tube, modelers cement at the hobby store). Get a little brush and use the liquid cement it on the notch to further clean out the notch by lightly melting the plastic- carefully done this leaves a realy sharp edge on the notch...you're not melting much of the plastic just the offending fuzz left by the file.
You'll also want to write the number used on the little white tab on the fidelity holder (or elsewhere). makes it easier for notetaking, particularly if you use the zone system where you'd want to develop each sheet in a different manner. But this also makes it easier to find a holder that has gone bad and has light leaks or some other problem.
The weather changed in LA hear from rainy to hot again,maybe Jim's Indian summer rain dance is starting to work.
Don,sorry I did not replay right away but thanks alot for the information on marking film holders.I've only have 6 right now and hunting for more so I've just numbered them in the white box for now.
"the part that opens on both sides where the sheets comes in is loose, I put some tape around but I am not sure if light will go in. I am bringing all of them and tape. A guy here in NYC was selling them at $4, but they are old and dusty."
I bought a box of film holders, 4x5, 5x7, an 8x10, the seller said they were dusty and slightly dirty from sitting in a basement. It was cheap so I took a chance. The 8x10 was shot, tossed it, the 4x5's were nasty dirty, put them in a box to be tossed, the 5x7's must have been protected by the others and they were just dusty. One had some black paint flaking off after cleaning and I found out the hard way when the flakes got on a film.
I got about 16 of them, plastic and not wood holders, I do have some very nice wood holders too and some new ones. My 2 1/4 x 3 1/4 holders are all new, got lucky several times, my 8x10 holders are very near new. Most of my 4x5 are new. You have to check them out carefully when used, especially the t-depth and light trap.

Women on the bench is common place today, but in the 1970s? Not so much. Here is the story of two Stark County mothers and daughters who made their way through the court system.
Democrat, Republican, man or woman. It doesn't really matter when you pursue a career in law, according to mother-daughter judges Irene Smart and Jennifer Sargus and Sheila and Kristin Farmer.
"Once you are elected, your job is to do what you were elected to do," said Smart, now retired from the 5th District Court of Appeals in Canton.
Smart inspired not only her daughter to rise to the bench, but was an inspiration to the Farmers in a way as the both she and Sheila Farmer became the county's first female judges in 1978.
"My mother always wanted to be a judge and was quite a pioneer in politics in Canton," said Sargus. "She began in (Canton) City Council. She would go door-to-door carrying a glass of dirty drinking water and told people, 'This is what we are drinking, we can do better.' "
So how did these mother-daughter teams become judges? They share their stories.
Smart was looking for something to do on her evening out, something away from the family, for the joy of learning.
"I didn't know I would like the law when I first got into it, but when I took the contracts, the tort law, I fell in love with it immediately. My husband was surprised, I think, to find this little hobby of going to school one or two nights a week was of great interest to me."
Before she turned to law, Smart was a physical therapist with a degree from Harvard University. When she decided to go to law school, she was a married mother of two. That was in 1953, a time when most mothers were considered the primary parent in households, not career women.
She enrolled in the William McKinley School of Law and soon joined her husband's practice.
After establishing herself in the legal field, she added politics to her list of accomplishments. The Democrat served 13 years on Canton City Council before joining the Ohio House of Representatives in 1972. She won re-election in that seat in 1974 and 1976. In 1977, she ran for Canton Municipal Judge and won. From there, she moved to Stark County Common Pleas Court. In 1988, Smart went to the 5th District Court of Appeals, where she remained until she retired in 1995. At the time, she was the first female to sit on the court. She was unable to seek another term since she hit the 70-year age limit.
Smart lost some elections along the way, starting with her first race for Canton City Council. She also lost two elections for judge when her daughter was a teen.
Sargus, also a Democrat, said that even when her mother lost an election she did so with dignity and optimism, which impressed her during her youth and young adult years.
Page 2 of 3 - "It is very traumatic to see your mother lose, but she was wonderful about it," said Sargus. "She got up and went to work the next morning. There was no sense of defeat, only ongoing optimism. I think that is one of my mothers greatest gifts to me as a human being, her optimism and perseverance. When I was about 24, she became a municipal judge. She was thrilled with that job."
Her daughter, now 60, just retired from the Belmont County Courthouse in St. Clairsville.
Sargus, a graduate of Vanderbilt law school, practiced for 10 years before becoming a judge with Belmont County Common Pleas Court.
The law was always in the air growing up, Sargus said. "My mother always told me to trust my own instincts. My parents did a lot of (role) modeling for me inadvertently."
Since retiring, Smart — now 95 and living in Jackson Township — took up art, continuing her education at local universities. Her daughter will continue to serve as a visiting judge and will teach trial advocacy at Ohio State University Moritz College of Law.
Irene Smart and Sheila Farmer won their respective races in the same election for the municipal court in 1977, said Farmer.
"We both took office in 1978 as the first women judges in Stark County. That was quite a coup for both of us, but Irene had many, many years in government having served in the state legislation and on city council. She was really a veteran at that time."
Farmer, a 67-year-old Republican who lives in Jackson Township, said it was an interesting path their careers took.
"We got to serve in all three courts at the same time. She was definitely the veteran and broke through many of the glass ceilings there were at that time."
Farmer graduated from Marymount College in Tarrytown, N.Y., attended London School of Economics and got her law degree from Case Western Reserve University. She served as assistant prosecutor for Cleveland, Canton and Stark County.
It is the pride of every parent to see their child succeed, said Farmer, now a 5th District Court of Appeals judge. "Richard and I have been so fortunate that both of our girls have done so well in their professions."
Farmer's husband is a scientist, and she is a lawyer, so they had one follow in each of their footsteps. "It is a compliment to me that she wants to take on the illnesses of the job. It is a hard, hard job, Common Pleas Court, and without being broken into in a lower court ... but I think she witnessed it enough."
Kristin Farmer was 7 when her mother became a Common Pleas judge. She was barely over a year old when her mother started as presiding judge in the Massillon Municipal Court. Sheila Farmer served 10 years at Common Pleas level and has been on the appeals court since 1992.
Page 3 of 3 - Kristin Farmer, a 36-year-old Republican, was appointed the Common Pleas bench to complete the term of Judge Charles E. Brown Jr., who retired in October. She will run for the seat in 2014.
Like Brown, Farmer is an Alliance resident. She has worked as a magistrate in Common Pleas Court since 2003, first for now U.S. District Judge Sara Lioi and most recently for Judge Lee Sinclair. She studied law at Case Western Reserve University in 2001 and worked as an assistant city prosecutor in Alliance before becoming a magistrate.
"Growing up, I never wanted to be a lawyer," said Kristin Farmer. "I don't know if that was the rebellion in me, but I got into law school because I wanted to be in the FBI. When I started to get into the law, especially in law school when I did an internship in a criminal defense clinic, I really got the bug to be in the courtroom."
She said her parents have been great role models in the community and have "made tremendous impact in different ways in the community. My mother serving as a public servant, she was a wonderful role model in what it means to serve the citizens of Stark County. I decided I wanted to take that fire I had of being in a courtroom and apply it toward being a public servant. It is an honor to be on this court. I never aspired to be a judge. I was inspired to be a judge."

Jerry Jones responds to Joe Theismann's critical comments
Former Washington Redskins quarterback Joe Theismann took some shots at Tony Romo and Jerry Jones during a Tuesday radio interview.
On Friday, Jones responded.
Theismann was most critical of Romo, telling Sportsnet 590 The Fan in Toronto that the Cowboys signal-caller "isn't a very good quarterback," "makes bad decisions with the football" and "has too many bad games."
He then called out Jones, criticizing the Cowboys owner and general manager for making poor decisions because he's "not a football guy."
"You have to ask yourself, 'Is the owner holding back this football team with football decisions?' And I think yes. I really do," Theismann said. "I think Jerry Jones is so emotionally involved in this game that he can't make a decision that I think effects this football team positively."
During an interview on 105.3 The Fan [KRLD-FM], Jones said he didn't have anything to say in response to those comments, but then followed with, "That's Joe."
"I've had him critique us before and those weren't necessarily on point," Jones added, "so I really don't have any comment on that."

Hank Not Interested In Country Radio Anymore
Think we'll see Hank Williams Jr. at CRS in 2014 yucking it up with Country PDs? The 64-year-old country music legend says he's not interested in Country radio anymore and he never listens. He told Taste of Country, I dont listen to todays Country radio, so I'm not sure who gets played and who doesnt. I really dont give a s! Williams released his 2012 album Old School New Rules on his own label, Bocephus Records. We have sold almost 100,000 albums with very little radio support. I have some loyal fans.

St. Augustine's Jack Clark reacts after winning the 152-pound state championship on Sunday at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. / Courier-Post/Jodi Samsel

St. Augsutine's Jack Clark (left) grapples with Hunterdon Central's Gary Dinmore in the 152-pound final at the Individual State Championships on Sunday. / Courier-Post/Jodi Samsel
ATLANTIC CITY — Bryan Dobzanski was out to cement his legacy at Delsea Regional High School this weekend.
Already the school record holder for career victories, the senior was attempting to become just the third two-time state champion in Crusader history, joining Don Fisch and Joe Alexander.
In a rematch of last years final, Dobzanski staked his claim to possibly being the best to ever wear the Delsea red, scoring a reversal to beat Don Boscos Zack Chakonis, 3-1 in double overtime, on Sunday at Boardwalk Hall.
One of, if not the best, in high school that is, Dobzanski said. Youve got Joey Alexander and Don Fisch, they wrestled in college, so theyre obviously better wrestlers. But I have the best résumé of high school wrestlers for Delsea. Thats all I wanted the past four years, and I got it. Its a dream come true.
St. Augustines Jack Clark also took his spot on the top of the podium, beating Hunterdon Centrals Gary Dinmore, 3-1 in overtime, at 152.
Dobzanskis wrestling career is now a closed book, as hes a forecasted early round pick in the Major League Baseball draft in June as a pitcher. But that book is a masterpiece.
Dobzanski finished on an 89-match winning streak. He hasnt been taken down or reversed since his sophomore year in the state tournament by the eventual state champion. He has two straight undefeated seasons, and after allowing just eight points as a junior, he allowed only three this year. His 158 victories is one shy of the all-time South Jersey mark set by T.J. Miller of Camden Catholic last year.
But as dominant as hes been, his second title didnt come easy.
Chakonis was close on multiple takedown attempts, but Dobzanski was able to fight himself free or slide out of bounds before giving up any points. Chakonis scored first with an escape to start the second period, and Dobzanski tied it with an escape of his own in the third.
After a scoreless first overtime, Chakonis started on bottom for the first of two 30-second periods. Dobzanski was able to ride him out and keep the score tied, needing to only escape to win the match in the second 30-second period.
With three seconds left before the ultimate tiebreaker, Dobzanski turned the tables and got on top of Chakonis, who held tight on his head in hopes of thwarting the reversal. But Dobzanski was able to pop his head free and take the match.
I didnt know how many seconds were left, I did my best to get this big head out of that lock, Dobzanski said. And looked at the scoreboard, three seconds left, I was like, I got it again.
Hes also going out on the highest note possible, winning one of the most dramatic bouts during a session of finals that included five overtime victories.
For his last-ever wrestling match, Dobzanski made it count.
Couldnt ask for anything better, exciting match like that, the crowd loved it, Dobzanski said. Went out with a bang. ... It feels so good.
Clark was finally able to experience the thrill of winning a New Jersey state title after wrestling the first three years of his career in Maryland.
The greatest feeling ever, by far, Clark said. Ive won prep (nationals), made finals at (the Beast of the East Tournament), won Maryland states, nothing even compared to that feeling.
Look how many people are here. This is my state, this is where Ive been coming since I was 6, and I just wanted to win more than anything.
Dinmore, a two-time state finalist, got Clarks leg on multiple occasions, but Clark was able to calmly fight off each move. Clark finally converted on a single leg of his own after the match went to overtime with the score tied, 1-1.
It was an amazing match, he was extremely good, I can see why he took second two times in the state, Clark said. Hes definitely the toughest opponent Ive wrestled this year.
Dinmore was close to a takedown with less than 30 seconds left in the third period, and the referee even put the two points on the board. But Clark quickly rolled out of the move and the takedown was waived off.
I knew it wasnt two. I just wanted to keep wrestling, Clark said. If it was two, I wanted to get out and take him down real quick. I just thought, Its not over, just keep wrestling.
As soon as the official awarded the takedown to Clark, he jumped up from the mat and ran to hug his coach, Bill Ward. Ward was a state runner-up in 1985, the same year Bobby Malatesta won the Preps only individual state title.
Clark has wrestled all over the country and is ranked in the top five in his weight by multiple websites. He was considered the favorite to win it all, but that didnt make it easy. He beat the eventual seventh-, fifth- and third-place finishers en route to the title.
Its tough, definitely the toughest one Ive had yet, Clark said.

I think photography gets to a point where it transforms from simply being a hobby to becoming an obsession.
I planned this shot ALL DAY yesterday after seeing our fireplace reflect off the floor the night before.
I took about 60 shots and I think this is one of the best.
The only light was from the fireplace and from a dimmer switch controlling a light on the ceiling.
Looking forward to you comments....

I know what you mean, The image. Looks really good, maybay needs straightning a fraction to the left, I would be tempted to copy the glass and re-paste it inverted to give a depth of reflection as opposed to light bouncing off that wonderful flooring you have. I notice no coffee cup stains!!!!!!!!!!!! so hopefuly that was supplied to you from behind the lens.

I meant select the glass using selection tool, freehand in a seperate layer, then invert the image of the cut out glass and re-paste to original image and drag it to an exact reflection of original glass to give the impression of a very deep reflection. Admittidly a reasonable knowledge of layers is needed for this but with a bit practice could look good.
Hope this helps a bit.
Nominating Constructive Critique
You have a winner idea here, but I think this could be considered a good practice run. There are a number of good and bad elements which I will elaborate on: (keep in mind this is my opinion which is trained more by art history than photographic history)
a) Composition: I can identify four key elements to the composition. The fire, the reflection on the floor, the glass/wine combo, and the pattern of the wood floor. The pattern on the wood floor leads quite nicely into the glass/wine combo from the other two elements. I quite enjoy the use of space between the fire place and the glass as it provides the eye with an area to move across while providing a sense of depth and distance, as if we are lying on the floor, perhaps on a rug, perhaps with a loved one, etc. If this was your aim, well done.
b) Lighting: I'm a real sucker for dramatic lighting, but this may be a little too much range for both the viewers eye and the digital camera. Fire is a definite killer when it comes to exposure, so there has to be a balance somewhere else. The reflection on the floor and the fire itself are very overpowering and tend to draw the viewer into them over and over. This level of light overpowers the subtle contrast between the glass/wine combo and the black background, so much that it is difficult to pick out the nuances of that element. You might try bracketing the exposure and dimming the fire while merging in the overexposed image to highlight the glass/wine element. If you need help with this technique in Photoshop I can find a good link for you. As an aside, may I suggest you look at some works by Rembrandt, Caravaggio and Delacroix to see some masterful examples of dramatic lighting and composition.
c) Colour: The warmth of the fire really comes through with this photo and presents us with a slightly romantic mood. To that extent, perhaps a small splash of red would compliment the composition. Perhaps having the glass half filled with red wine and accentuating the red slightly in Photoshop would add just a hint of another emotion.
d) Balance: your shot is balanced quite well as it is but I would perhaps crop it ever so slightly from the bottom to just below the wine glass, and in from the the left to the edge of the fireplace panel. Also, it appears as though your fireplace is somewhat skewed, or is that just my eye? If it is, a quite PS correction will take care of that.
You can improve this shot if you care to, and it would look magnificent within a black matte and gold frame. Well done, and make sure to email me if you shoot this one again. I would love to see it.

It's a pretty good shot all round, the only things I'd change are:
Bit more light on the right hand side, the bottle seems a bit lost against a dark background, not too much because you've got some great reflections from the fire.
The fire is a bit blown out which you could probably adjust in photoshop or somesuch.
All in all it's a winner

Hi Mike. I'm studying a procedure in PS at this time which would seem to be ideal for this type of shot. Bracket a shot and underexpose by a stop and a half or so and then combine them in PS and you should be able to recover the highlights. Regards

But I think you need to work more on this.
The bright area of the fire, and the reflection appear to be completely blown out highlights there seems to be no detail at all in these areas.
Conversly the right hand side is in complete shadow - again no detail, and the bottle of wine (or at least that is what I assume it is from the glass next to it) is really in too much darkness.
As is mentioned the shot appears to be just off horizontal which could be fixed by a crop, and there is something coming out ofd the wine glass - is it a poker/brush set ?
You appear to have too much contrast in the shot, you'll either need to find a way to lighten the details or reduce the brilliance of the fire - possibly an ND grad ?
This should help with the shadow area.
As for the tilt, and the positioning of objects - it is a case of attention to detail.....
Keep on shooting
Nominating Constructive Critique
The image is confusing to my eye. If I try to focus upon the glass I see the background distractions. Can't focus upon the fire as it is far too bright for the photograph. I think that there are some good elements here that need to be simplified, blended etc to make this work. I would keep working with it...maybe some filters would help.

Many thanks for all the feedback - I felt bad about soliciting for feedback via the forum, but I thought the image was good, but it was probably because I actually put effort into planning the shot.
I'm not at all discouraged by everyone's criticism - in fact I'm kind of excited about trying this again, taking into account everyone's suggestion.
I've learned a lot from this one shot and I think that is the idea of this site.
Cheers and many thanks!!

the left third of the frame is just a bright, burnt out bit, and the right third is too dark to see what's going on. i can see the shape of a wine glass, but it just looks like a dark empty room with a glass on the floor and a bright light shining in through the glass pane behind. there's no mood.
i can see what you were trying to do, i think, but i think the left is far too bright with the rest far too dark. the glow needs to illuminate more of the areas (like the glass) in which you wish to "tell a story" and create that mood.
nice try though.

I like this Mike but the bright highlights distract, if you can control them more this will be stunning..well done, click

A little too much harsh light I think. If the reflection on the floor is not overexposed so burning out the information the digital camera could capture then you could have dulled the glare on the floor and fire while paintng the detail back in using the default black of photoshop and careful control of flow and opacity.
Having read the forum decided to answer good effort though.

I would agree with mlorne's reply and go one step further. Everything in the photo has definite harsh edges, if you want to provide a romantic edge put something like a crumpled fluffy woollen blanket or a womans jumper just on one edge and most definitely reduce the overexposure from the fire.

SOUTH KINGSTOWN - The passing of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), has not only changed the way that individuals, families and businesses receive and qualify for healthcare, but has done the same for public school systems.
This was made evident at the school committee meeting on Tuesday night, where the accountability subcommittee presented to the full committee the work being done to analyze how the district would have to change its per diem and part-time employee policy based on the ACA.

MUNCIE, Ind. (AP): Police in Muncie say a burglar took what's believed to be a bone fragment from a 15th century saint when he broke into a church rectory.
Police say a priest at St. Mary's Catholic Church found the man rifling through his belongings when he returned to the rectory after a service Sunday afternoon. The priest told police that the man pulled out a hammer before fleeing.
The Star Press reports officers later found the 53-year-old man with the saint relic and other items.
Police returned the relic to the church. The bone fragment is said to be from St. Rita, an Italian nun who died in 1457 and was canonized in 1900.
The man was jailed on burglary charges.

Apparently, We Can Thank Doom For Valve's Existence
Before Billionare Gabe Newell was fabulously wealthy thanks to having co-founded Valve, he was a lowly, less obscenely rich Microsoft employee who worked for Bill's house for 13 years. When he left to found Valve, he created what, as the recently leaked Valve employee handbook suggests, appears to be a company that is essentially the perfect employer (if you're a genius level enough to even qualify). Bloomberg talked to Newell about Valve's corporate culture, among other things, but perhaps the most interesting thing to come out of the interview, as Kotaku noted, is the fact that Newell's decision to leave Microsoft was inspired by the Internet's first enormous time-sucking gaming phenomenon that could get you fired if your boss found you playing.
Yes, Doom is the reason we have Portal. But it isn't for the cash-in-on-a-trend reasons you might be assuming. It had a little to do with an examination of Windows market share. "At Microsoft, we had very little visibility into the actions of our customers," newell said. "You know how a lot of computers came with Microsoft Office pre-installed? There was concern among people who were working on Microsoft Office that people would buy computers and reformat their hard drives and install MS-DOS instead of Windows. So said well, let's go look at what our customers have on their PCs. We weren't going to just ask them. It was a really expensive thing to do. The good news that came out of that was that I think at the time, 20 million people in the U.S. were using Windows."
That's a giant number of people – I remember when the transition to GUI interface really set in and even then it was still kind of a shiny new novelty. 20 million people must have sent their jaws dropping to the floor. Until, that is, they looked at the rest of their data. "[W]hat was so shocking to me", Newell continued, "was that Windows was the second highest usage application in the U.S. The number one application was Doom". Yes, you read that right. Americans really were wasting as much time as their bosses said they were.
This seems to affected how Newell viewed his own situation. "[Doom was] a shareware program that hadn't been created by any of the powerhouse software companies. It was a 12-person company in the suburbs of Texas that didn't even distribute through retail, it distributed through bulletin boards and other pre-Internet mechanisms. To me, that was a lightning bolt. Microsoft was hiring 500-people sales teams and this entire company was 12 people, yet it had created the most widely distributed software in the world. There was a sea change coming."
So there you have it. Thanks, Doom, for making Gabe Newell decide to switch careers. It's enough for us to forgive that awful movie.

[…] starting with H-. But said team's members argue that Chanukah is correct, because it's the "traditional" spelling, while others assert Hanukkah is the correct "American" spelling. They are both […]
Hanukkah begins this week. So does Chanukah, Hannukah, Hannukkah, and Channukah.
Confused? We don't blame you. Why is this Jewish holiday, also known as the Festival of Lights, spelled in so many ways?
The answer comes down to transliteration. Unlike translation, transliteration is when you "change (letters, words, etc.) into corresponding characters of another alphabet or language." In Hebrew, the language from which the Jewish festival originates, the word for Hanukkah is not easily transliterated into English. This accounts for why there are so many spelling variants. But Hanukkah and Chanukah are the two versions that are most widely used and accepted.
Hanukkah lasts for eight days. It commemorates the rededication of the Second Temple in Jerusalem. Scholars disagree about how to interpret the Hebrew word for Hanukkah. But one common interpretation is that it means "dedication."
On each night of the holiday, a different branch of a candelabrum called a menorah is illuminated. The festival is also celebrated by indulging in latkes, or fried potato pancakes. Children play a game involving a type of wooden or plastic top called a dreidel.
A word common to Judaism, Christianity and Islam is "amen." What does this simple and common word actually mean? Find out here.
[…] starting with H-. But said team's members argue that Chanukah is correct, because it's the "traditional" spelling, while others assert Hanukkah is the correct "American" spelling. They are both […]
[...] Chanukah, Hannukah, Hannukkah, and Channukah? [...]
I was born and brought up in Manchester,England 78 years ago and in all the years that I lived there, I never once saw Chanukah written in any other way than this. All the Chanukah cards and articles in the Jewish Gazette had the word written as I have done and does to this dayand it is only now am I seeing other spellings. In my opinion it is the American influence that has brought about the differences.
As for the candlestick that is used for Chanukah the correct name for it is Menorah. It has holders for Eight Candles plus one more which is either at the front of the Menorah or at the end of the row but higher (as you can see in the illustration) and that is for the Shamus or Keeper. It is used to light the other eight. I would like to correct Michael who wrote that the oil lasted seven days, in fact the oil lasted Eight Days and that is why there are places for Eight Candles.
The lamp that burns before the Ark never goes out, as a sign that G-d is with us. When the Philistines razed the Temple, the lamp continued to burn even when there was no oil. A messenger was sent to obtain more oil and it took eight days for him to return. Hope this helps. . Semalea
I prefer the word Chrismaramahanukwanzikah.
I take issue with the following sentence: "Unlike translation, transliteration is when you 'change (letters, words, etc.) into corresponding characters of another alphabet or language.' " This sentence is grammatically incorrect. A website dedicated to the English language should not include a sentence that uses an adverbial clause ("when you change…") with a linking verb ("is"). The linking verb "is" should be followed by a noun that renames the subject or by an adjective that describes it. This sentence should be written as follows: "transliteration is 'chang[ing] (letters, words, etc.) into corresponding characters of another alphabet or language.' "
The 'candelabrum' is actually called a Channukiah. The Menorah was a seven branched candelabrum, lit in the times of the Mishkan and the Beis Hamikdosh (temple). The Channukiah has 8 branches as the oil lasted 7 days. And it is also traditional to eat doughnuts, and cheese, from the story of Yehudis.
Sorry 'Kimba' its not "chanucha", in Hebrew its written חנוכה. Though there is no English equivalent to the first letter of the word, there is a English equivalent to the Hebrew letter kaf, Kimba mistook it for the letter haf (or chaf) which is a common mistake for beginners in the Hebrew language. Basically because there is no English equivalent you can spell the word in many different ways, including: Chanukah, Hannukah, Hannukkah, and Channukah but "chanucha" is not one of them, take it from an Israeli. By the way Kimba the Hebrew calender is not purely lunar, that would be the Muslim calender, the Hebrew calender includes a solar leap year to move the year back into the correct seasons.
The correct spelling is Chanukah. It should begin with CH and not H because in Hebrew it is spelled with the letter Chet (which makes a hard, guteral sound), not the letter Hay which is just like the English H.
That is about the silliest and most poorly written thing I have read. The transliteration of the name of the holiday is Chanukah. The "Ch" is meant to represent the guteral ch (, as in Yuch"). Chanukah in Hebrew means they fought on the 25th. (Chanoo means they fought. Kah means the 25th.) The custom is to eat fried foods. Potato pancakes or the Yiddish, latkes, is the traditional food of the holiday amongst those of European descent. Soofganeeyot, a Hebrew word for fried jelly donuts, which is traditional in Israel.
Very intersting
"Chanuchah" is the way I would transliterate it, having taken many Hebrew classes and being Messianic myself. And @ Fred – It depends on what calendar you go by to decide when it starts. I go by the moon. And, finally, Chanuchah is the festival of lights as well, so I suppose you could say it means "Lights."
The article didn't state it has "just begun" it states it begins this week.
Another point. The custom is to eat foods cooked in oil, so Ashkenazim (Jews from eastern Europe) eat latkes, but Sefaradim (Jews from Iberia) eat sufganiot, jelly donuts. However, today we both share each other's customs.
Interesting post but a point of information.
Chanukkah "has NOT just begun." It begins on November 27th at sundown.
And people are trying to combine this with Thanksgiving? Talk about pluralistic. The two holidays are nothing alike.
Thanks for the information, Dictionary.com. But you should have picked a different title. As soon as we see the title, we know how to spell Chanukah.
I've usually heard it called "Hanukkah." Nice info, though.
Adoration is my word.
Mike – Very informative

Absolutely indited content, Really enjoyed looking through.
The correct spelling seems to be "חֲנֻכָּה". Like Arabic, Hebrew has many ways of transliterating words (converting to another alphabet).
@ Mike
Thank you Mike for your brilliant explanation and for clarifying the correct word in Hebrew and the reason for the different spellings.

I am most impressed by you, Kimberly, because you are blessed with the knowledge of so many languages at such a young age. I pray that this gift is put to great uses and that many are blessed by it.

Seriously excellent things right here.

Mike – Very informative. I'm having a go at pronouncing "Chanukka" as you said to. I'm sounding like a total idiot, but I think I'm getting there
To many people:
Just because you're a Jew, it doesn't mean you're right. And don't call me racist because I am a Jew.
Anyways, the candelabra is called a Hanukkia because Menorah means light in Hebrew, so it isn't Menorah.
@Curly: Read the above.
Plus, Chanukkah is more about the meaning that Christmas is now, so don't go there.
Yes, I read all the comments.

Youre so right. Im there with you. Your blog is unquestionably worth a read if anybody comes across it. Im lucky I did because now Ive acquired a whole new view of this. I didnt realise that this issue was so important and so universal. You surely put it in perspective for me.
Hey – nice weblog, just looking about some blogs, seems a quite nice platform you're utilizing. I'm currently using WordPress for a few of my sites but looking to change one of them over to a platform comparable to yours like a trial run. Something in particular you would recommend about it?
Congratulations on having one of the most sophisticated blogs Ive arrive throughout in some time! Its just incredible how significantly you can take away from one thing simply because of how visually beautiful it is. Youve put collectively a terrific blog space –great graphics, videos, layout. This is absolutely a must-see blog!
Dude, please tell me that youre heading to publish a lot more. I notice you havent written an additional weblog for a while (Im just catching up myself). Your blog is just also important to be missed. Youve received so significantly to say, such knowledge about this topic it would be a shame to see this weblog disappear. The internet needs you, man!
Thanks for taking the time to talk about this, I really feel strongly about it and really like knowing additional on this subject. If possible, as you gain expertise, would you mind updating your blog with additional data? It is very helpful for me.
@Daniel Rosenberg:
I've actually researched this, and I would say it is the other way around. Menora is the real Hebrew word for a candelabra; chanukia is simply a back-formation of Chanukah.
Are rules for transliteration that strict? The Hebrew language does not use our alphabet – therefore, there is no right or wrong for transliteration. For instance, the "ch" sound in "loch" is generally shown as "kh" in dictionaries, but no one is saying you have to spell Chanukah "Khanukah". I do believe that it is probably more accurate to spell it Chanukah rather than Hanukah, but that is only because it makes a difference in the pronunciation. But it's up to the person trying to transliterate a word whether to spell it with an H at the end or not, since this does not change the way the word is pronounced.
I thoguht this post was one of the more informative posts that have been featured in a while. This is mostly due to the fact the the word is used so often around this time of year.
Some of you are really upset over this whole thing for soem odd reason? You're coming across as antisemitic.
And, the potatoes, they are latkas, from the Yiddish word לאטקעס. Gut stuff! =)
This is nonsense to say the least.. Next time please have a better Blog feature, does really spelling matter!?
So what with the spelling, dont care… I'm Protestant after all
actually there is no correct way to spell it in english. there are millions of ways to spell it in english. I usually spell it Chanukah, but common ways are Hannukah, Channukah, Hanukah, etc. The only wat to correctly spell it is in hebrew which is חנוכה
So there is no correct way to spell it.
HAPPY 6th NIGHT OF CHANUKAH EVERYONE!
hi dennis,
Thnks for the info, so its yessiah.. i think its better to use that in my prayers,, just kidding!.. well its genuine!
i love how everyone got so hyped up over the spelling of a holiday. wow and people wonder why we can't have world peace…
Does anyone have the audacity to come all the way down here and read the comments all the way at the bottom? If you do, here's a word for the wise: Go back up, the comments get worse down here.
Actually, Americans make a greater effort than Brits do, when it comes to pronouncing a foreign word in the foreign manner. Consider the French word "garage." People aren't morons if they become confused by a spelling such as Chanukkah, but I don't think Ariel meant to insult; she just overstated her point.
Okay, all you morons: How do you pronounce Kathmandu? Khaki? Gyro (the item you find in Greek restaurants)? Ahmedabad, the city in India, and Ahmedabad, the city in Pakistan? Safed?
Nissen is right im Jewish as well but so is everyone else here so its quite obvious isn't it?
My level of understanding believes Jesus Christ is the Greek name of the Hebrew version of Yessiah Messiah.
Happy Hannuka and Merry "Christ-Messiah"mas to all !
Peace and blessings.
Ariel- since my last name is very German I suppose if you mispronounce it you're a moron? I always thought the way to spell it was with 1 n and 2 ks.
im bored…mmmm latkas(<<did i spell that right?idk<<)…ive actually never had a latka………………im not jewish either,but i wanna play the dreidel(idk how to spell that either)game&win CHOCOLATE&stuff… mmmm i want chocolate n0w…
well things do modernize…i mean we use candles instead of oil lamps so i guess thats why dreidels are plastic and wood now…in Israel they do still though…did you know they didnt just change the spelling of name of the holiday but also on the dreidels "shin" substitutes "peh" for the hebrew word for there instead of the hebrew word for here…snice you cant really say a miracle happened here when it happened in there…and now its all about gifts instead of the miracle…
Paula great idea if she does come tell me
George-i speak Aramaic too
nobody cares anymor…we dont even spell correct wen we txt…prounce 1/2 of wat i jus wrote….
it all depends on the region… Ashkenazi jews spell it 'ch' and the majority of american jews are of Ashkenazi descent hence thats the more popular way over here… Ashkenazi's also eat lahkes because of they are influnced by their immigrant homes then their Sephardic counterparts…as for the morons…in a diverse country like the U.S people shuold take the time to learn about other cultures…Especially snice english is composed of multiple languages…
i know alot of people who get angry at immigrants who dont learn english properly if they have been more then a yr…with all the polite people on here you'd think that the world would be alot nicer place…
I don't know for sure when the latkes became part of the Chanukkah tradition, but dictionary.com places the origin of the word between 1925 and 1930 AD. According to what I know of Jewish tradition, oil-fried foods are eaten during the eight days of Chanukkah in remembrance of the sacred oil that burned for eight days during the rededication of the temple. So, before potato pancakes they probably ate some other sort of fried food to help commemorate the event.
Also, I find it curious that it mentions the "wooden or plastic top" called a dreidel. Does nobody make them out of clay anymore, in spite of the song?
it all really depends on the region….jews in america spell it with "ch" cause their are of eastern european descent…and snice alot more of those reside in the U.S thats the more popular form of spelling here….sephardic jews of course spell it correctly snice they havent been influnced as heavily by the countries they immagarted to…e.g ashkenazi jews eat lahkes while sephardi jews dont…so technically it was a new world food for us too:)…as for people being morons…i'd hope in a diverse country like the u.s people would learn more about other cultures…and not be so dense in understanding…Especially because english is derived from multiple languages itself….
@daniel arias:
You devil, you copied my post verbatim. I have some choice words for folks like you, but I'll refrain from using them.
hi every body
The letter is officially translated into English as ḥ.
Among Sephardi speakers, and among Arabs, this letter is pronounced as a very "throaty" h, as in the Arab/Muslim 'Muhammad'. This letter is known as 'ḥet' among Sephardic (Spanish, Italian, Greek, Middle Eastern, and North African descent) Jews. Hence the spelling of Hanukkah/Hannukah.
Among Ashkenazi Jews, this letter is pronounced as ch as spoken in German, such as the word 'Reich' in German or 'loch' in Scottish Irish. The letter is known as 'ches' (the letter th is pronounced \t\ by Sephardim and \s\ by Ashkenazim) among Ashkenazic (Eastern European, e.g., Russian, German, Polish descent) Jews. Hence the spelling of Chanukah.
Did I clear things up?
Can we all just accept that Hanukah/Hannuka/Hanukkah/Chanukkah/Chanukka/Hannukkah/Channukah/etc. can be spelled many different ways, and that mis-pronunciation is not the highest sin?
It mentions potato pancakes
potatoes were a new world food.
When did Jews begin to eat them??
In hebrew the 'H' is pronounced like 'CH'. Therefore in some books the word 'header' appears as 'cheader' (the elementry schools Jewish boys went to in Eastern European Shetels) and Hannukah is also spelled as Channukah. (this is a place to learn, not make derogratory remarks about others)
I am willing to BET that the majority of Jews spell Chanukah with CH. In fact, for me, a good way of telling whether someone is NOT Jewish (and/or shikker), is to see if they spell it with an H. I grew up in a very large Jewish district in Los Angeles, where you never saw the H spelling, whatsoever. That was 50 years ago, so you might say tradition has changed, but I don't believe that is true one iota. If you spell Chanukah with an H, you are most likely not of the old Jewish nation or faith.
My 3 cents. Happy holidays to EVERYONE!
Congrats to Mike, who posted the only real phonological explanation in this string. Amateurs need to realize that when we render an H in a Hebrew (or other Middle Eastern) spelling, it sometimes needs to be seen as a CH, as in German: what linguists call a glottal stop. No Western European language has words that start with glottal stops, but Middle Eastern languages do.
Foreign names usually get standardized. Users would do well to follow a style guide and be consistent.
Worst case ever in published English of deliberate multiple spellings of Middle Eastern names: T.E. Lawrence (of Arabia) in Seven Pillars of Wisdom.
does it really matter as long as u pronounce it right.
Did you know there are variations of spelling in English words across the various countries that have English as their official language? No surprise there…
@ Rupert – Dude – love ya man!
In some African (or was it South American) languages they use clicks of the tounge and other sounds not in English as part of their words – crazy cool.
I think most people think a speaker with an accent (that is, one who injects the sounds of his own native language into the new one) sound kind of humorous – being polite we don't like to laugh openly – but put that voice into a movie as comedy relief, and it sure to get a laugh – take your pick – Spanish, German, Scottish, Russian, even Southern, British or Aussie English sounds funny to an American – I'm sure American accents are just as funny in Australia.
So… even though we can make sounds from other languages, we think we sound funny when we do, so we don't – even if it would be most correct. Take it from me the son of a German immigrant, I can zound fary German if I vant to, and if I hat a better kommand of ze vocapulary, I could get ze accent down pretty vell… but then I feel like I'm making fun of my dad!
Happy Hanukkah/Hannukah/Chanukah to those who celebrate!
We have always delighted in the story of Channukkah.We have cooked thousands of Latkes for friends. We have been to many Churches and explaned Hannukah to many Christian friends. I recently explained the story to my English class. Got a passing grade for doing so. Along with my extensive wrting; they were in awwwwwwe about the history of Chanukah.
It's possible that both Mickey Rose and Ariel Biegel are possessed of a sense of humor. On the other hand, they might be humoristically challenged. It's difficult to tell without examining them: accelerated humor causes even a moron to smile; while retarded humor causes even an imbecile to laugh. Doodie, what say you?
It's the same problem with Koran vs. Qur'an.
And i wonder if the name jesus" is a hebrew word??
since the letter J is a english alphabhet.. so whats jesus in hebrew?
my name is actually a hebrew word,, but i dont know what exactly it means..
Words have different spelling, depends on the country. Example :
French – Thérèse
Romanian – Tereza
Spanish – Teresita
Swedish – Therese
Same as Hanukkah. Spelling depends on the country. Especially when the word is long and hard to say or translate.
@ george, awesome way to bring some peace to it. If only we could all be so slight in ego and understanding we might all learn something about each other and our respective cultures.
I've been a fan of the Hebrew language and I learned so much today. Happy Chanukka everyone! ☺☻☺
LMAO @ Willie Goldburg. Dude, you can't spell to save your life. "Speeling" "Egyptions" "Palastine"…wtf? I don't think I'll be trusting your spelling of Hanukkah either.
actually ashley, Amen means this is true
These spellings are only used in America. Chanukkah is used by Orthodox Jews, Hanukkah is used by Conservative Jews, and Hannukah is used by reform Jews. Just in case you were wondering.
this is dumb cause its spelled with 8 letters on purpose and one of these has 9
I hasten to add that I misspelled my own name, "correctrly" instead of correctly and ħɑˑnukːɑ instead of ħɑˑnuˈkːɑ.
Although Mike's facts are correct, I disagree that the ultimate "h" generally should not be transcribed. Where it is the non-construct feminine ending, it should be transcribed. Both "Torah" and "Hanukkah" have that feminine ending (Toráth- where it is in construct with the next noun). This is particularly important as, in Hebrew, the feminine ending is normally the accented syllable (though both pronunciations Tórah and Toráh can be heard). As Moshe מושה is a masculine name, it is little useful to transcribe the terminal he.
No, it's spelled Chanukah not hanukkah or hannukkah.The only reason why some people spell and say hanukkah instead of Chanuah is because,Amaerican's and/or people who speaks English,can't say the kh/ch that's why people pronounce hanukkah instead of Chanukah.
I am also a jew and I Know What im talking about.
@Ruby Juarez
Hannukah and Christmas are not very similar at all, they celebrate completely different things. Just because they are both celebrated in December and are both associated with gift giving does not make Hannukah the Jewish counterpart to Christmas. If it was celebrated in, say, February, no one would say that because they are very different holidays.
It's the ignorant like Ariel Biegel and his bigoted opinions that keep our society languishing in outdated and erroneous views that people have about other types of people. Rest assured all mainstream Jews like myself do not share his opinion. Ofcourse a person is not ignorant and definitely not a 'moron' just because he can't pronounce a word in a different language. All people really love each other deep inside, and we can all easily shed all the suspicion, erroneous views, and aspersions about others that have built up within our respective cultures. So this year let us all really use the opportunities for growth and harmony afforded by this great country, and just love all human beings equally. I believe everyone really wants to do that, but no one wants to take the fist step, it just takes one motivated person to say it out loud in a public forum, and that's what I am doing right now.
And about Biegel, don't let what he said bother you, he's just a first class 'Meshugenah' (or however you spell it).
Happy Christmas, Chanukah, and any other holiday being celebrated at this time of year in the greatest country in the world!
God Bless America.
New York City
In the protolinguistics of the archaic Egyptian-Sumerian-Hebrew Jehovahns, they had more than one definite article–
H, was the definite article, e.g. Biblical H'Adam, was 'the man' (distinct from Adam by name);
K, was the definitive article, e.g. Khonshu of Egypt, was Kh'An-Shw THE LORD Shw, (what he did was to-be the lord, so that's definitive not just definite).
Many words in the Bible have the definite or definitive prefix, that we don't see in the English–
Ch'Eve, we call, Eve, but she was 'The Mother';
Schnook, we call, Enoch, (in some places, Hanoch H'Enoch The Enoch, the Lord).
Alot of the recognition of the protolinguistics seems lost to us because so much of the meaning is assumptive –what little mankind cared to know– replacing the fuller original meaning … Plus much of the difference language we receive is only the consonantal 'bare bones' of words that were much richer in their unwritten-spoken voweling….
For example a word we see in a lot of languages, is–
Shekinah, in the original Sumerian, Upsukinnaku (recheck doublets) which meant Apsu's Kinnaku which was his Council of Sons, or his golden sons, or his gold, depending on the spoken vowels, but mankind needed only know it was 'them-same-bones' … and we see the word in Hawaiian, Kanaka, meaning just man, because the original men were golden from whom they were descended….
wow people get really touching about this stuff. o.O
Ariel, come to my place of work which employes a couple thousand Chinese natives, and the spellings of whose names have no place whatsoever in the English language, and we'll see if you don't find yourself sounding like a retard when you try to pronnounce them.
if you agree with something i say write a comment saying it
@Willie Goldburg:
What does "chulking" mean?
@Ariel Biegel:
It's not every day you see someone call English-speakers morons in nearly perfect English.
The letter is officially translated into English as ḥ.
Among Sephardi speakers, and among Arabs, this letter is pronounced as a very "throaty" h, as in the Arab/Muslim 'Muhammad'. This letter is known as 'ḥet' among Sephardic (Spanish, Italian, Greek, Middle Eastern, and North African descent) Jews. Hence the spelling of Hanukkah/Hannukah.
Among Ashkenazi Jews, this letter is pronounced as ch as spoken in German, such as the word 'Reich' in German or 'loch' in Scottish Irish. The letter is known as 'ches' (the letter th is pronounced \t\ by Sephardim and \s\ by Ashkenazim) among Ashkenazic (Eastern European, e.g., Russian, German, Polish descent) Jews. Hence the spelling of Chanukah.
Did I clear things up?
@Micky Rose:
Have you considered that your "Jewish" school may not be the sole authority on Judaism?
Since i'm Jewish I believe the "ch" replaces the letter in hebrew that cant be pronounced in English so they used "ch" as the closest sounding pronunciation. If people accidentally say it wrong who cares. However, that IS the reason they changed the first two letters to an "h".
amen means so be it, i think
translitelation is assimilation of foreigness.
[...] Happy Hanukkah with Adam Sandler's Harmonica and don't forget your Yamaha — with all the Jewish Stars about no wonder it's the "Festival of Lights" — or was that a thousand points — Double Down and that's just how the world spins round. — like a Chanukah driedel. –>>Rupert L.T.Rhyme [...]
@Ariel Biegel. I speak Aramaic fluently (new Assyrian), so I don't have any problem pronouncing Hebrew words.
Just because you can pronounce a certain sound doesn't give you the right to insult others that cannot pronounce a certain sound/letter in a language that is not related to their mother tongue.
If you do some research on how human develop their speech abilities. You'll find out that human develop their vocal cords and learn how to utter sounds at a very early stage of their childhood, subsequently shaping their Vocal Cords and impacting their speech ability. Learning a new language pass a certain age will inevitably leave the speaker (leaner) with an accent and difficulties in pronouncing or uttering certain sounds.
Your ability to pronounce (CH) doesn't make you more intelligent than any English person/speaker. Many Japanese don't/can't pronounce english letters… Many Jewish have very heavy accent and don't'/can't pronounce english words the way the native speakers do.
Does that make them stupid or less intelligent?
Please do not turn an education forum to a hate channel. However you are forgiven if you are still in the Vocal Cords developing stage
Chabby Chanukah and Mewwy Chwistmas to all…
Felicity- everyone has different ways of celebrating the holiday. there isn't a right or wrong way. the thing about presents, though, isn't part of a religious aspect of hannukah. i think it probably got started because those celebrating christmas gave each other presents, and since it is frequently around the same time, those celebrating hannukah adopted the same traditions. it IS typical, however, to make at least one night designated to giving to charity, rather than exchanging gifts.
also, a menorah is any candelabra, while a hannukiah is specialized to have the nine candles.
In this case, most readers (including me) follow what newspaper's author composed and published for "Hanukkah". It is a common practice to believe that what has been printed and displayed on newspaper authoritatively approved by editorial board.
The confused word is "amen", some used "ameen" and also not less for "amin". So, which one should be accepted as the original word? Whether amen or whether ameen or whether amin.
ariel you cant speak every language or pronounce every word which means you just called yourself a moron i speak American,English,French,German,Russian,Spanish,and Italian and i turned 13 today.that means a 13 year old is smarter than you and so is everyone else here
n_n i read this article and smiled because it reminded me of the potato cakes we always make on hanukkah.
The having different ways on spelling Hannukah is so cool! I'm not Jewish but I am Cristian and I celebrate Christmas.It is almost like Christmas except you open one present each day and we open them all on the same day at once.
Happy Hannukah everyone!
The real name of this holiday is Chanukah, with the "ch" being sounded as if you were clearing your throat. Since this is not a sound that is part of the English language, and people therefore cannot say the "ch" sound, the "c" was dropped and it became Hanukkah.
I always knew all of this.
The Hebrew word חֲנֻכָּה should be transliterated into English as "Chanukka."
1. Most anyone who speaks Hebrew knows that the Hebrew letterח is not pronounced like the English letter "h" as in "hello" (voiceless glottal fricative), nor the "ch" as in "chair" (voiceless postalveolar affricate), but rather, like the "ch" in "Bach" (voiceless velar fricative).
It should be transliterated into English as the digraph "ch." By transliterating it incorrectly as "Hanukka" rather than "Chanukka," one may lead the reader to assume that the first letter of the word is the letter ה (he) rather than ח (chet).
2. Furthermore, the כ (kaf) is written with a dagesh chazak, viz. כּ. This means that it should not be transliterated as "k" but rather "kk."
3. The Hebrew word חֲנֻכָּה occurs eight times in the Hebrew Masoretic text and is typically translated into English (in most versions) as "dedication." Likewise, the Aramaic equivalent חֲנֻכָּא occurs four times and is also translated as "dedication" in the majority of English translations. The word חֲנֻכָּה is derived from the root verb חָנַךְ (chanak) which means "to dedicate, inaugurate."
4. Unless a word ends in the letter הּ (he with mappik), then it is not transliterated into English with the letter "h" at the end of it. For example, we don't write "Mosheh" but "Moshe." Now, there are some exceptions to this rule, particularly those words which have, over time, been written in English with the "h" affixed. In these words, the "h" is not dropped because of custom, e.g. we write "Torah" not "Tora."
wow, this is an info that can't be missed. i always thought its Hannukah but i never thought that there are other ways to spell it hahaha love it
Ariel – not sure why translating a word to English and then having it follow no rules of that language would make the native English speakers morons for mispronouncing it? I suppose all English speakers who mispronounce my very German last name are all morons as well huh?
The word menorah needs to be challenged because it is technically a misnomer. In the American/Jewish American cultural lexicon, menorah has been used;however the correct word would be a Hanukkah candelabra or literally in Hebrew, a Hanukiah.
The right speeling is Hunnokhah or Hunnoq. This word came from when the Egyptions contained the jewish group who escape from Egypt to Palastine through Senai for about one month. It called in Arabic Khnoqah mean chulking. I hope I am right in thi spoint.
Hanukkah is spelled Hanukkah. My school taught me that and the school is a jewish school.
Would we call someone a moron or a retard simply for not having knowledge of multiple languages? Or, might they simply be ignorant of this knowledge, which is honest without being accusatory?
Speaking a language that is lacking a certain sound or letter doesn't make one a moron, nor does mispronouncing a foreign word make one worthy of an epithet.
I, for one, found the article interesting and informative. Why respond with such vitriol?
I think its cool that its spelled differently!
way i herd it, everybody opens 1 gift on each of the 8 days. is that right?
Chanukah is supposed to translate the letter in hebrew that we don't have in english but since everyone calls it chanukah as in chew. So they changed it to starting with an H so that these morons that speak english can pronounce it without sounding retarded!
Actually, Hanukah translates as "rededication" and the candleabra is called a Hanukiah.
OMG I've never knew that there were a ton of different ways of spelling that

After getting lost for about 2 hours in the old city of Dayan, whoever is up there decided to make our life more challenging by sending down some rain. Groovy. Just what I needed, I thought. But in the end, this unwanted rain (sort-of) magically steered our direction to the less occupied part of the city.
And voila! On one corner we found a very charming Italian restaurant. It had this rustic vibe, complete with the stone and wood furnishings.
And as far as authenticity goes, this was actually a pretty good Italian restaurant for Chinese standards (dating an Italian chef for 5 years has made a very picky eater out of me when it comes to spaghetti).
By now you already know that I am a sucker for oysters. The same goes for artichoke. I heart artichoke but living in Beijing, I've always encountered problems ordering anything with artichoke as they always add only a sliver of it.
They are not stingy with their artichoke! I repeat, they are NOT stingy with their artichoke. In fact, a huge part of their salad is made up of artichoke head. Which left me speechless. Because in China, artichoke is considered a luxury item (for my budget anyway).
And check out their pizza.
Looks yum, no? Don't be fooled. The pizza was tasteless. I imagine getting good mozzarella in the area must not be an easy feat. So I can't really blame them.
Verdict: The charming little interior earned 8/10. Artichoke/anchovy salad earned a 6/10 while the deceiving pizza earned a 4/10.
Travelers, this restaurant is adjacent to an equally charming courtyard-boutique hotel. Check it out when you are in Lijiang.

A Dover Township woman who lost her son when he took pure fentanyl is holding an anti-heroin rally in Dover on Saturday.
Vickie Glatfelter said she's hoping to start a conversation about heroin use in York County while also educating people on its dangers and how to get treatment.
Though rural Dover may not seem like a place heroin addicts would call home, Glatfelter said the drug is in the small town and others like it.
"People in Dover won't want to face that it's here," she said. "It's a community problem."
One the first steps in spreading awareness is to start talking about heroin, a conversation some may find uncomfortable.
The rally: Numerous York County officials are expected to attend and speak at the rally, which starts at noon at Dover High School, 46 W. Canal St.
York County Coroner Pam Gay, chief deputy prosecutor David Sunday of the district attorney's office and others are expected to address the crowd at the school's parking lot, Glatfelter said.
From there, attendees will "take their message to the street," and head to the square in Dover where they'll line the streets, she said.
Information about the signs of addiction and where to find help will be available. The rally ends at 3 p.m.
Felt by family: Glatfelter said she was prompted to organize the rally by the death of her son, Robert Glatfelter III.
Like all addictions, heroin not only affects those who use it but also, and sometimes to a greater extent, the families of addicts.
Robert Glatfelter, 28, battled his heroin addiction for nearly five years until he died just 10 days after he left a rehabilitation clinic in April. He had bought what he thought was heroin, but it turned out to be pure fentanyl, Vickie Glatfelter said. He died in a motel room after ingesting the drug.
Fentanyl, which is sometimes mixed with heroin or used to replace it, is a synthetic prescription opioid typically used to treat pain.
Vickie Glatfelter said she was there for her son throughout his addiction, often holding him as he went through heroin withdraw.
His addiction and death left a lasting impact on her and the rest of his family.
"My heart is shattered in a million pieces, and I don't want any other mothers to go through what I went through," she said.
