Hebrew is often transliterated in this haggadah, so that those who do not read Hebrew letters, may pronounce the Hebrew words. This is a guide to the pronunciation of the letters.

a = ah as in father

ai = eye as in eye or buy

ch or kh = a throat clearing sound, like the Scottish loch or German ach!

e = eh as in bed

ei = ay as in weigh or stay

o = oh as in home
