tetragrammaton (Y-H-V-H)
What is the proper pronunciation for the tetragrammaton (Y-H-V-H)?
by Rabbi N. Silberberg
The correct pronunciation of the tetragrammaton is unknown. It is only permitted to utter that name in the Holy Temple; since we do not have a Holy Temple today, that name is never uttered. Instead we substitute "Adonai" (my Master) whenever the Y-H-V-H appears in the prayers.
