How do Israelis write "Ecuador"? - degeltin - 12-02-2024
Hello,
I'm confronted with the question if in modern Hebrew the diphtong "ua" is always written as וו (waw-waw)?
For example: My dictionary says for "Ecuador" אקוודור. But could it also be written as אקודור ? (Only with one ו. The a in Ecuador would then be an unwritten vowel).
Maybe both is correct?
Thank you for your help.

In Yiddish עקוואדאר
In Hebrew אקוודור
