In relation to Phoenix expertise :) how Kabbalah should be spelt

Our Phoenix expert 😕 believes the "Kabbalah" explains marvel hierarchy in relation to the Phoenix but no one spells it as he does can anything else his essays say be taken seriously 🙂 I say no

Taken from "Understanding the Kabbalah"

What does the word "Kabbalah" mean, and how should I spell it?
The word "Kabbalah" is derived from the root "to receive, to accept", and in many cases is used synonymously with "tradition".

No-one with the slightest interest in Kabbalah can fail to notice that there are many alternative spellings of the word, the two most common being Kabbalah and Qabalah. Cabala, Qaballah, Qabala, Kaballah (and so on) are also seen. The reason for this is that some letters in the Hebrew alphabet have more than one representation in the English alphabet, and the same Hebrew letter can be written either as K or Q (or sometimes even C). Some authors choose one spelling, and some choose the other. Some (the author for example) will even mix Q and K in the same document, spelling Kabbalah and Qlippoth (as opposed to Qabalah and Klippoth!). A random selection of modern Hebrew phrase books and dictionaries use the K variant to represent the letter Kuf, so anyone who claims that the "correct" spelling is "Qabalah" is on uncertain ground.

There has been a tendency for non-Jewish books on Kabbalah published this century to use the spelling "Qabalah". Jewish publications are relatively uniform in preferring the spelling "Kabbalah".

The author takes the view (based on experience) that the spelling "Kabbalah" is recognised by a wider selection of people than the "Qabalah" variant, and for this purely pragmatic reason it is used throughout the FAQ.

he consistently spells it as in the post below

Whirly read up on Kaballah (well one interpretation anyway LOL)

I suggest you google the 2 spellings 🙂

and see whose right 🙂 If his wrong on how its spelt how can anything else be taken seriously.

He preys on your ignorance.

Keep the faith 🙂

Stay Whirly 🤘

remember herd behaviour is a comical thing - challenge your ideas 🙂

And then look up "irony".... it'll help you see the humour of someone saying they can't take someone else seriously due to spelling mistakes.... WHILST making his own spelling mistakes in the same sentence.

It is amusing, no spell checker works on my mac sadly for KMC - but answer me if he is not using the accepted spelling for his big theory how seriously can it be taken scoobs 🙂

I just realised your back 🙂 nice to see you Swanky 🙂

to be honest, i think using any non-comic text/fiction to explain comic powers to be a bit silly

As do I its a completely ludicrous thing to do.

Please dont play along with this game. 🙄

Basically Whirly read up on Kaballah in an attempt to catch me out (yes i know quite sad really). He found one interpretation out of a multitude (if only he'd asked) and thought he knew it all. This interpretation was different to what id been saying so Whirly thought he'd caught me out. Whirly then made out that he'd been reading about it for years and that he'd been laughing at my ignorance for months now. I took one quick look at his post and i burst into a fit of laughter. From the basic grasp of the principles and the fact that he believed there was only one was to spell Kaballah i knew the man was a novice who got busy with google the night before LOL. 😆

It was me who pointed out the flaws in his understanding and I who initially posted some of the correct ways to spell the word. Just check here to see this for yourselves:

It seems Whirlys pride took a bit of a battering after i unveiled to the forum that despite the pretence that he is well read he is nothing but a google wh*re. 😮 😱

Through this thread and others in my absence it seems he's quickly tried to get his version of events across to as many people as possible as a way of saving face. 😮

Visit the appropriate thread (given above) and join in with the hysterics. It was a long time coming. 😂

EDIT: Nevermind, not like it would have gotten through anyways.

do you think you have to have read the Kaballah (i don't care how it's spelled) to be well read?.... i haven't read it.... and i'm pretty sure the vast majority of people i know haven't read it... and some of them go through a couple of books a week

I never said that or meant that as you very well know, you said that Scoob. 😉

So much for not getting personal about the attacks there Whirly. . .

Also you should understand that there usually is not one set method for romanizing non-roman alphabet based languges.

Enforcing your opinon of "what the proper spelling is" when using the roman alphabet for these langauges is a bit condesending.

For example in transliterating japanese into roman characters there are a number of different romanization systems in use; the three main ones are Hepburn, Kunrei-shiki, and Nihon-shiki. But not one of them is "more correct" than any of the others. Which is best to use is merely opinion. As is how to romanize other langauges, such as Arabic or Hebrew.

Exactly.

Having been proved wrong and with no counter Whirly had to resort to criticising my spelling of the word in an attempt to save face. When i then pointed out that there were many different ways to spell the word in my absence Whirly made a number of these threads in an effort to save face.

This is no competition. You brought forward queries i answered them. Dont react with spite thats completely against the true spirit of a forum. 🙂

Lets all be grown ups here ok? 🙂

So "who is" right then? Did you really comprehensively read the FAQ you got most of your post from?

It's saying that there are multiple ways to spell it. I thought it was odd that you talk about how there are multiple ways to spell it, and then go off talking about "who is" right.
