Pronunciation of “Tallit”

Question

Good day Rabbi, I am attempting to learn the correct pronunciation of Tallit. Does it sound like Tall-it or tal- leat? Thank you and bless you.

Shalom,

Jeff Hayes

  1. In general, words in Hebrew put the emphasis on the last syllable. That means that Tallit is pronounced Ta-lit with the emphasis on the “lit.”
