Yetiv
Yetiv (Template:Langx) is a cantillation mark found in the Torah, Haftarah, and other books of the Hebrew Bible. It replaces the Pashta when these two conditions are fulfilled : it is not preceded by any conjunctive (mesharet), and the word is prototonic.
The Yetiv uses the same < symbol as the Mahpach, but when it is present, the < comes at the beginning of the word, unlike in a Mahpach, it is placed under the letter of the first syllable that is stressed. It is found to the right of the vowel. There is also no Pashta.[1] In print, the Yetiv will sometimes be distinguished from the Mahapach by being more acutely angled, but in the identical position.
Yetiv occurs in the Torah 356 times.[2]
The Hebrew word Script error: No such module "Lang". translates into English as sitting.
