Does anyone have a list of the words in Shema that are easy to mess up on, in that the last letter of the first word is the first letter of the next one? For instance, על לבבך and ואבדתם מהרה. The mishna isn’t Berachot mentions to articulate phrases like these so that you don’t accidentally combine them since the letters are the same. So does anyone have a list of all the instances of these?

  • @ezra There are other types of errors, like overemphasizing the ז in תזכרו.
