Mar 22, 2015 at 2:59 comment added Double AA I think Hallel Nirtza might just be one step. Like Shulchan Orech. Some Rishonim had mnemonics like Yehallel BeDitza. This may be analogous. (Possibly we can argue that Nirtza is saying Hallel HaGadol after Hallel. This depends a lot on the formulations of Rishonim regarding the fifth cup of wine. I'd be curious to do more research about that.) What's clear though is many rishonim had various mnemonics for the 'steps' of the seder (Avudraham lists like 6-7 ones that were in use). Don't get too attached to the common one printed today.

Making transliteration consistent withitn the post. I chose the one that seems most likely to have been intended in aplces in the post assuming there was a single one intended in all three places.
