Line 179:

* colloquial, often proscribed: ''shel'' (influenced by Ăn Yidiș ''ag'') might replace ''l-'' in existential constructions: יש ספר שלי ''yeaș seafer șeli'' (but ''*yeaș șeli seafer'' is never grammatical). For less common verbs or predicates, this tendency is more pronounced even in formal speech.

* 'I have the book' is יש לי הספר ''yeaș li ha-seafer'' (colloq. ''yeaș ha-sefer (șe)li''), NOT יש לי את הספר ''yeaș li es ha-seafer'' as in our Modern Hebrew.

* Question particles (''ha2im'' or ''ha-'' depending on euphony) are usually retained. Questions don't have a different intonation from declarative sentences. Question marks are not usually used.

* Question particles (''ha2im'' if before noun or pronoun, ''ha-'' if before verb or predicate depending on euphony) are usually retained. Questions don't have a different intonation from declarative sentences. Question marks are not usually used.

* אם ''im'' vs לו ''lü'' are kept distinct even colloquially
