Usage notes

 * The letter ד represents the phoneme /d/. In Modern Israeli Hebrew, this phoneme is pronounced [d] (like the &lt;d&gt; in English ).
 * In the Masoretic Text, the letter ד takes a dagesh (דּ) not only when geminated, but also at the start of a word or after a consonant. In Yemenite Hebrew, it is pronounced [d] in those contexts, and [ð] (like the &lt;th&gt; in English ) in other contexts; it is commonly believed that the same was true in Classical Hebrew.
 * In Modern Israeli Hebrew, the sound /ð/ (like the &lt;th&gt; in English ), which occurs in various foreign phrases and proper nouns, is commonly written.
 * The letter ד does not have many "grammatical" uses &mdash; it mostly occurs only in the "main" part of a word &mdash; but one exception is in hitpa'el verbs (and derived nouns) where the first letter of the root is ; for example, one says rather than *.
