SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
Everyone is familiar with the idea that Hebrew is
based on triliteral ROOTS. These triliteral roots can
be CONJUGATED in a variety of forms. Each distinct
conjugation gives rise to a distinct meaning. Hence it
can happen that two conjugations are spelled almost
identically but mean totally different things.

EXAMPLES
--------
AwShAwn:AwShAn::Smoke(noun):To smoke(Verb)
PaChaz:PawChaz::Fizz(Noun):To fiz(Verb)
HawMam:Hawmawm::To smash::To smash them
HithHalech:HithHalech::He walked:Walk(Command)
BA-ah::ba-AH::He came::He is coming
Yehgel:YeeGel::He exiled others:He was exiled
YAYlech:YAYgel::He walked(active)::He exiled them(reflexive)

NOTES
-----
*1 In this example the identically spelled word can mean either
   - he walked (past tense)
   - walk (Command)

   Cf The Grammatical tables in the Ibn Shoshan dictionary
   Table 1 presents the conjugations in question.

*2 The words are spelled with the same letters. The minute
   vowel difference determines whether it is causative(Helped)
   vs active (Good)


*3 The two words have the
   - same spelling
   - same letters
   - differ in placement of accents
   Cf Gn29-06a vs Gn29-09,Gn46-26a vs Gn46-27 and
   Gn42-21b vs Gn34-27
