יחוה is used in Psalm 19:2, where it seems to mean "show," or "declare." Does it mean anything in modern Hebrew?
[FONT=sbl_hebrew]יְחַוֶּה [/FONT] I don't understand the vav with two niqqud. How do you pronounce this word?
One is a Dagesh, as this verb is in the Binyan of Pi'el, and the other is a Segol. The pronunciation of this word is /yehavveh/ (not exactly IPA, but close enough, don't you think? )
True, and more generally: if a vav has a dot in the middle and another nikkud mark, then the dot must be a dagesh (hazak), not a shuruk, and the vav is a consonant, not a vowel.
The verse is יוֹם לְיוֹם, יַבִּיעַ אֹמֶר / וְלַיְלָה לְּלַיְלָה יְחַוֶּה דָּעַת. If you remember the basic rule that Biblical poetry if often built of pairs, two equivalent parts, then this is becoming more simple. יום ליום is equivalent to לילה ללילה and therefore יחוה דעת must be equivalent to יביע אמר. If you know that יביע אמר is shall utter say/speech, then יחוה דעת must be similar and indeed is shall reveal/express opinion/knowledge.
