Need to add plural form

[edit]

Plural of "shiur" is "shiurim" ... Someone should add this and its hebrew spelling as well, for the public good. The Hebrew spelling is שיעורים, shin, yud, ayin, vav, resh, yud, mem sofit. Please delete my comment from this article's Talk section after you edit this into the Article. Thanks! Adamgold33 (talk) 19:00, 22 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It's already there, in the first line. Yoninah (talk) 19:13, 22 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Compounding correspondingly

[edit]

I don't find the words above helpful in this section. Class levels For Talmud-study, the level of complexity and understanding expected from students increases each year, successively incorporating additional layers of commentary and perspectives, and with the analysis compounding correspondingly; see Yeshiva § Talmud study. In the directed article on Yeshiva we find this statement: Exploring the logical principles underlying the Mishnah's statements, and showing how different understandings of the Mishnah's reasons could lead to differences in their practical application. What underlying principle is entailed in a statement of fact or in a specific instance brought as an illustration? If a statement appears obvious, the Gemara seeks the logical reason for its necessity. It seeks to answer under which circumstances a statement is true, and what qualifications are permissible. All statements are examined for internal consistency. See: List of Talmudic principles and Category:Talmud concepts and terminology. I think what is trying to be stated here is that the analysis is deeper and more intricate as the course progresses, and the student increase in knowledge. However 'Compounding correspondingly' seems a clumsy way to say that. Can we just say 'with the analysis deepening correspondingly;' or 'with the consequent effort in analysis required deepening'?Pngeditor (talk) 13:48, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
