HaKatan and Hershi, I am very aware that there are many, many different opinions on this, and I am simply stating my opinion, which I got from a few biblical Hebrew and Composition classes taught by a master in the Hebrew language. And yes, it’s true that the letter “Ches” doesn’t completely transliterate as “H”, it is closer to how the Spanish pronounce “J”, as in “Guadalajara”. The letter “Kuf” does, however, transliterate as a “Q”, and the letter “Saf” should be a “TH”.
