Reply To: Siddur

Avram- Rosh chodesh parenthesis is not a good example at all. Everyone knows that there are tefillos that are designated for certain holidays. Besides it usually says what the Tefilla is for and you dont need to skip pages in order to skip that paragraph. Its different than having something printed that you dont say at all.

Also I dont understand why it would be beneficial to know all other minhagim in the siddur. If you are used to one minhag then when you come across a different siddur you still wont be thrown off, you will know you nusach by heart. If you know other minhagim does that mean when you come across a nusach other than your own then you will suddenly say different tefillos since you “practiced” by seeing them in your siddur and skipping them until the time is right?
