@levihmoore @nemessmer @biblingoapp No worries at all :) In any case, this whole discussion does touch on an interesting point in terms of describing sounds without audio examples and how much we can expect of beginning language learners. There are definitely pros and cons to every approach.
@levihmoore @nemessmer @biblingoapp I did do my best, alongside the IPA transcriptions, to use more "colloquial" non-IPA explanations of each sound in the Short Guide (comparing it to English or even Spanish sounds) to the degree that you can do so without being inaccurate.

'he kissed him', which in Hebrew is uessakē, in every Hebrew book/scroll is dotted-all-around
