 [g] B. Conjunctive Accents (Conjunctivi or Servi).

14. (־֣) מוּנַח Mûnaḥ.

15. (־֤) מְהֻפָּךְ M^ehuppākh or מַהְפָּךְ Mahpākh.

16 a. (־֥) מֵירְכָא or מֵֽארְכָא Mêr^ekhā, and

16 b. (־֦) מ׳ כְפוּלָה Mêr^ekhā kh^ephûl̄â or Double Mêr^ekhā.

17. (־֧) דַּרְגָּא Dargā.

18. (̀־ָ) אַזְלָא ʾAzlā, when associated with Gèreš (see above) also called Qadmā.

19. (־֩) תְּלִישָׁא קְטַנָּה T^eliša q^eṭannā or Little T^eliša, postpositive.

20. (־֪) גַּלְגַּל Galgal or יֶרַח Yèraḥ.

[21. (־֖) מְאַיְּלָא M^eʾayy^elā or מָֽאיְלָא Mây^elā, a variety of Ṭiphḥa, serves to mark the secondary tone in words which have Sillûq or ʾAthnâḥ, or which are united by Maqqēph with a word so accentuated, e.g. וַיֵּצֵ֖א־נֹ֑חַ Gn 8¹⁸.]

 [h] 

II. The Accents of the Books תא״ם.

A. Distinctivi.

1. (־ֽ) Sillûq (see above, I, 1).

2. (־֫ ־֥) עוֹלֶה וְיוֹרֵד ʿÔlè w^eyôrēd,^[1] a stronger divider than

3. (־֑) ʾAthnâḥ (see above, I, 2). In shorter verses ʾAthnâh suffices as principal distinctive; in longer verses ʿÔlè w^eyôrēd serves as such, and is then mostly followed by ʾAthnâḥ as the principal disjunctive of the second half of the verse.

4. (־ֹ) R^ebhi^aʿ gādôl (Great R^ebhi^aʿ).

5. (־֜֗) R^ebhi^aʿ mugrāš, i.e. R^ebhi^aʿ with Gèreš on the same word.

6. (־֓) Great Šalšèleth (see above, I. 3 b).

7. (־֮) צִנּוֹר Ṣinnôr (Zarqā), as postpositive, is easily distinguished from צִנּוֹרִית Ṣinnôrîth similarly placed, which is not an independent accent, but stands only over an open syllable before a consonant which has Mêr^ekhā or Mahpākh.

8. (־ׄ) R^ebhi^aʿ qāṭôn (Little R^ebhi^aʿ) immediately before ʿÔlè w^eyôrēd.

9. (־֭) דְּחִי D^eḥî or Ṭiphḥā, prepositive, to the right underneath the initial consonant, e.g. הַ֭גּוֹי (consequently it does not mark the tone-syllable).

1. Wrongly called also Mêr^ekhā m^ehuppākh (Mêr^ekha mahpakhatum), although the accent underneath is in no way connected with Mêr^ekhā; cf. Wickes, l. c., p. 14.
