    Yabia, it is not correct. When necessary, one can daven until chatzos even though he might not gain the reward for tefila bezmano, davening in its time but it is considered davening. The question is whether one can daven after chatzos in the half hour until mincha.

    מבין דבר מתוך דבר, coming to understand one thing from another which is already understood and so on.
    Rashi says on ושננתם, שיהי’ דברי תורה מחודדים בפיך the words of Torah should be sharpened in your mouth שאם ישאל אדם דבר such that if one asks something אל תגמגם don’t stutter אלא אמור לו מיד but be able to answer them instantaneously.

    The problem is that not enough emphasis is placed on bekios and Shulchan Aruch see the sefer Tenu Kavod Latorah from Rav Fuerst. See https://hebrewbooks dot org/22633

    It look like saying Tikun Leil Shavuos does not have to be understood. A person gets a reward for staying up and showing appreciation for the Torah. It might encourage one to learn it in more detail later on.

    Also we do not go after rov by a goy but by a Jew rov are not viable until birth. The proof is in Parshas Mishpatim were money is paid when killing fetus.

    Anyway to pronounce something is spelled with an ‘ou’ so pronounciation should be spelled like that and not pronunciation. English spelling is stupid. As you would want to spell fish as ghoti where gh is like rough, o like women and ti like nation.

    We discussed this already that there is a difference between a Jew and a goy. By a Jew, no and by a Goy, yes. The Minchas Chinuch questions whether the exception of saving the mother applies by a goy.

    Go to sleep around 2:00 AM and get up to daven with the regular minyan. When davening with a hashkama minyan, being up the whole night, the davenen is asleep.

    We makeup for the fact that we overslept at Kabolas Hatorah and Hashem was waiting for us as it says ויוצא משה, Moshe Rabbenu led us like the Kallah towards the Chasan, Hashem.

    There is a story between the Dubner Maggid and the GRA were the the GRA said Tikun Leil Shevuos and the Dubner Maggid learned Shavuos night. They asked the Dubner Maggid why don’t you do like the GRA? He gave a mashel. When a peddler shows samples to sell merchandise, it only makes sense if he has a storeroom of merchandize to fulfill the orders. The GRA is an outstanding talmid chacham can show samples but I have to learn to fill up my storeroom in order to be able to show samples. We must learn before one can do, גדולה תלמוד שמביאה לידי מעשה.

    Once he left from the cave, he was sent back as he did not understand people’s behavior, not learning Torah all the time. He wanted to burn up everything and was told, don’t destroy my world.

    It says קשה זווגו של אדם כקריעת ים סוף, the Chidushei Harim explains that the match comes in unexpected way as the splitting of the sea. One must put in the hishtadlus but the help does not necessary come from it as finding a job.

    There is a story where Meshiach came wearing a bend down hat. When he went to chasiddish shul, he was told here we bend the hat up. When he went to a litvish shul with a bent up hat, he was told here we wear it bent down. Then he went to a Young israel and he was told what do you need a hat for? So he said until you can agree on a hat I am going back.

    The wife makes a bracha שעשני כרצונו, He made me according to His will. Through her existence she performs a mitzva being there to support her husband. We call a wedding a nisuyin meaning to elevate. Each one elevates the other by placing them on a pedestal.

    I saw that a Melave Demalke was instituted by Dovid Hamelech. He was thanking Hashem that he stayed alive and was not taken away on this Shabbos as he was suppose to be niftar on Shabbos.

    Most fetuses are not viable until birth so it is not a nefesh but by the goyim we don’t go after rov, the proof is Pidyan Haben after thirty days.

    Another proof is that a woman requiring execution is killed with the fetus together.

    I mentioned the Meharsha why Pharaoh picked Jewish midwifes. Don’t discount the Tzitz Eliezer with his twenty one volumes. There are two ways to pasken, bottom up or top down. Most poskim pasken from bottom up, looking at precedence from other recent poskim, whereas Reb Moshe ztz’l went from top down, learning the gemora first and the rishonim next and ignoring the current achronim.

    I think the Minchas Chinuch means that not that it is not a rodaf but rodaf is not permitted by a goy as the heter is וחי בהם which does not apply by a goy.

    The Torah gives us an advice how to avoid loshan hara. If you judge one for the good, you will not gossip (rochil) about them which follows the commandment of judging for the good.

    See the Rav Chezkuni in Shemos (21,22), Parashas Mishpatim, it is considered a viable being when it is born until then it has only has a monetary value. Even when born, we wait thirty days to make a Pidyan Haben.

    As it is assur for a goy, it is assur for a Jew as for a Jew is not more lenient but maybe וחי בהם trumps and under certain circumstances pointed out in the above reference it is mutar.
