Re: Hebrew spelling

I also have a few problems regarding the spelling of vav...for example,
when vocalised the word "me'od" (very) does not contain a vav, but I have
seen it written with and without in unpointed text, the same for "hodu"
(India).
Is it more common to write vav's in unpointed text, even when they are not
used in vocalised? Also, The word "rosh" (as in rosh chodesh) is
spelled "resh alef shin", but I've never seen this with a vav.
Thanks
