Well, since everyone else is going....although my English name is pretty much straightforwards. ['stivIn 'EliIt 'bEl<v>ski] ; [l<v>] = velarized "Steg" is [stEg]. My Hebrew name is [tsvi'hErS Ef'rajIm bEn 'arjE'lejb] ; although the [h] sounds more like a [j] when i say it fast. -Stephen (Steg) ___________________________________________________________________ Get the Internet just the way you want it.
