A proposal for the emendation of several words in Persian-Hebrew texts

Juibari In the post-Islamic era, one of the writing systems used in writing the Persian language was Hebrew alphabet, which, like other Semitic alphabetical systems, is not suitable for recording the Persian language. Persian texts written this way are referred to as “PersianHebrew” or “Persian-Jewish”. The structure of the Hebrew handwriting that has identical graphemes standing for different phonemes (sounds) has led to tashifs (incorrect writing) and imprecise readings in the editing of Persian-Jewish texts. This article attempts to rectify a number of the words that have not been correctly recorded by the editors of the Persian-Hebrew texts.
