-Pronouncing /ħ ʕ/ as [ħ ʕ] is the normative, careful pronunciation. Most eople casually merge /ħ/ and /x/ into [χ], and prevocalic /ʕ/ and /ʔ/ into [ʔ~Ø]. Non-prevocalic /ʕ/ may be realized as nasalization of the preceding vowel: שמע ישראל [IPA]
+Pronouncing /ħ ʕ/ as [ħ ʕ] is the normative, careful pronunciation. Most eople casually merge /ħ/ and /x/ into [χ], and prevocalic /ʕ/ and /ʔ/ into [ʔ~Ø]. Non-prevocalic /ʕ/ may be realized as nasalization of the preceding vowel: patach + ayin is pronounced as [ɑ̃:], and qamatz + ayin as [ɔ̃:]. Tsere + patach + ayin may become [ɛ̃:].
