symbol

The symbol of Rewia mugrasch comes from the combination of the characters of Geresch muqdam and Rewia . Geresch muqdam stands above the first consonant of the word, the point of Rewia stands above the stressed syllable. The word mugrasch contains the root of Geresch and is therefore also called Rebia gereshatum in some grammars.

grammar

Rewia mugrasch is an important disjunctive accent on the third level. In a three-section verse, the first section ends with Ole we-Jored , the second section ends with Etnachta . The last segment after Etnachta and before Silluq is divided by Rewia Mugrasch. It does not appear in the previous sections. Rewia Mugrasch can replace an Atnach in short sentences, then all the other rules continue to apply, as if Atnach took the place of Rewia Mugrasch.

A Rewia-Mugrasch segment can be further subdivided by Dechi , and a Dechi can be preceded by another disjunction Rewia gadol. In some cases such a Rewia-Gadol segment contains only a single word, in this case Rewia gadol is replaced by Schalschelet gedola.

Rewia Mugrasch can stand alone or can have up to three preceding conjunctive accents. If there is only one conjunction, it is Mercha . If there are two accents, a tipcha or another mercha can precede it.
