So it seems like if you’re davening on shabbos and you by accident start Atah Chonen instead of Atah Kadosh you’re supposed to finish the bracha. But what if you’ve already said Atah Chonen (and Hashiveinu and Slach Lanu) On a side note if you remember it’s shabbos and you’re only up to Slach Lanu are you suppose to clap your chest?? ( I did, but I felt a little self-conscious)
Yes you do clap your chest just eventually you notice your mistake and start saying atah kedastah. However hopefully you notice your mistake before shema koleniu because you should really not say shema koleniu on shabbos
You finish whatever Bracha you are in when you realize and go straight to Shabbos from there. And you don’t have to Klop your chest. Hitting your chest is barely a Minhag and if it will embarrass you to do it in Shul on Shabbos then you don’t have to at all.
Bar Shattya: Thank you for the qualification. If you remember in the middle of any of the 13 middle Brachos you finish the Bracha. If you remember in the middle of Retzei through Sim Shalom you go back to the Shabbos Bracha immediately. If you remember after finishing Sim Shalom, you have to start the Amidah over.
clamping your chest may be a minhag, however it most probably is a minhag yisreal since almost every jew does it. It is based on a gemarah. The gemarah is in berachos 7a
I don’t think any of us here should be making halachic p’sakim although it seems like the p’sakim that were given were right. I know a little halacha, but i also know that a person is supposed to ask his rav a she’ila – not the CR
