The symbol for Rewia is a simple point in the manuscripts, but is usually reproduced in a diamond shape in print editions . Wickes sees one point of Rewia as a system, whereby it is exceeded by the stronger separator Zakef with two points and this in turn by the even stronger Segol with three points.

description

The trope is a third level disjunctive accent. Rewia appears before Pashta, Tewir or Zarka segments, but is stronger than Pashta , Tewir or Zarqa .

Possible combinations

1st variant

Rewia	Munach	Darga	Munach
֗	֣	֧	֣

Rewia often stands alone. If the previous word refers in meaning to the word with Rewia, then it is connected with a connector such as e.g. B. Munach, marked. If another subjunctive accent appears before Munach , it is Darga . Another conjunctive trope Munach may appear before Darga.

2nd variant

Rewia	Munach	(Munach) -Legarmeh	Mercha
֗	֣	׀ ֣	֥

If the preceding words relate in meaning to the word with Rewia, then they will be used with connectors such as B. Munach, marked. Sometimes, however, a disjunctive accent precedes: Munach-Legarmeh, which, with a few exceptions, only appears in Rewia segments. Another conjunctive accent Mercha can be added in front of it. Rewia can also have a preceding disjunctive Geresch segment, which can appear alone or in front of an interposed Munach-Legarmeh segment.
