1) Shinuy Nuschyos; there are many variances amongst different prints of chumashim regarding trop, nekudos, sof aliyos and rarely, spelling.
2) Corrections/mistakes; as a baal koreh for many years there at many times that I come across a mistake that is unfortunately quite common.
3) Halochos/Minhagim; what do you do when you find a mistake on the Torah? What makes the sefer possul? Tallis when you lain? do you use a yad?
4) I'm not sure about this but maybe we can coordinate jobs in shuls if they are available. I know personally that I'm asked many times if I could lain somewhere but I'm already booked. This may be a good place to share those jobs.
5) Stories and anecdotes; interesting places you've lained, interesting Torah's you have lained from.

Great thread. I have been asked many times to take over for someone, but rarely can I do it. And vice versa. I need someone to take over for me occasionally and its never easy finding someone.PM me with your location I know of a friend who has an agency for baalei Kria. He mainly does chabad houses and crown heights shuls, but if it is in walking distance he may be able to help.

There is a Baal korei in my shul who has a smart practice when he makes a mistake and said Shem H'.It is common practice (some to themselves while others finishing aloud), though hallachically it's not required (especially if it's a real mistake) since technically the passuk was never really leined and it's like he said hashem's name accidentally so he can just stop right there and start the passuk anew correctly.
He reads the rest of the posuk quietly to himself so that be read a complete posuk and then he starts laining again from the begining of the posuk.
But, yes, the minhag is to finish off the rest of the passuk before restarting.

Great thread. I'm a Baal Korei too. When leining vayigash a couple weeks ago, quite a few people got confused with the different endings of the AliyosBy me as well even though I told everyone before. Also פרשת מקץ שבת חנוכה even though I told everyone thatשישי ושביעי would be read together you still had people confused about the aliyos.

Monday and Thursday is a great place to start as it's very short and like you said someone is almost always needed. You can spend some time on shabbos afternoon to prepare it and then go over our once before Monday and again before Thursday.

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to lain it last year so now I haven't looked at it in 2 years. That's a good idea for Mon-Thurs, but it's annoying because my Shul usually has someone for Mon/Thurs. I find the need for a Ba'al Koreh more when you're in a random place one morning. And at that point, I wouldn't have prepared it in advance.
Regarding שוא נא ושוא נח my first few years of laining I wasn't careful but then I learnt an easy simon to remember them and i it became a breeze.
I was always careful with pronouncing words clearly, but I didn't get too grammatical until my Hebrew class in college where my phenomenal teacher taught us everything about Shevas, Dageshim (still don't do that 100% properly), etc. I've gotten much more particular, but of course, would never correct a Ba'al Koreh who doesn't pronounce a Dagesh Chazak. In my community, many Ba'alei Kriah read "Ches" and "Ayin" in a gutteral way like certain types of Sefardim. I don't think I would ever end up laining like that, though.
The most interesting thing my teacher taught us was how he believes a Daled without a Dagesh should be pronounced - "Daleth". His support was quite intriguing. Everyone knows that Rashi says by Shema that the Daled of Echad should be stretched out. Yet, there's no way to really stretch it without ending up saying "Echaaaaad" (which isn't stretching the actual Daled, but rather the Patach of the Ches) or "Echadah" (which is really like adding an extra letter after the Daled." However, if you pronounce the Daled as "Daleth," then you can say "Echathhhhh" as that is a sound that can be stretched. Perhaps that's how Rashi pronounced his Daleds and that's what he meant. Thought it was really interesting.

I believe that's why it's used as the deciding chumash in many shuls including Chabad. In addition to that, it's also the Chumash that the Lubavitcher Rebbe used.

Also, every trop is appears in the taamei hamikra exactly the way it should be leined i.e. mil'el vs. milra etc. The only thing that doesn't match up is the name of the yesiv is a two-syllable word with the trop appearing between the two syllables which contradicts the actual trop.

He was laining and wasn't careful to pause between two words that ended and began with the same letter. For example. מצרים מעבידים, אתכם מתחת, מתחת סבלות, אתכם מעבודתם, לכם מורשה, מקצר רוח. These are very common in all the parshiyos and are to many to enumerate. It's extremely crucial that you pronounce these correctly, separating the letters into two separate sounds.

Also many people have a minhag to get an aliyah this week in honour of the yortzait of the Rebbe Rayatz. So in chabad kehillos many side minyonim are made for Kria.

There are at least 3 differences in פרשת בא between the ת''ת and the other חומשים. They are on the words; לכו-נא, שה תמים, לבד מטף. There is another שינוי נוסח from my great grandfather on the word קומו, but I don't believe there is a מקור for it.And because minhag Chabad is not to split the aliyos.

Probably no chiddush for baalei kria, but just to mention a general yedia. The difference between taam hatachton and taam ha'elyon is that taam hatachton is divided according to pesukim upon mesorah, whereas taam ha'elyon is divided by the aseres adibros; every mitzva a separate passuk.ראה שו''ע הלכות שבועות בכ'ז
Just to mention that it has become minhag chabad (I believe based on Reb Mottel Shusterman) that for every פזר in the עשרת הדיברות, we replace it with a מרכה כפולה.

I noticed two differences to what I wrote before:1) he finished off מימינם ומשמאלם like חזק. 2) he did another פסוק in the Sheffield tune even though it didn't have Hashem's name. Unfortunately I'm not certain which possuk that was.

Anyone have any tips or information on different minhagim that I may not be aware of?The best tip is to practise, every word of the megila is meakev so make sure you can read corrrectly every single word. There are different minhogim but most are the same by everyone.
•raise your voice by בלילה ההוא
•we repeat ואיש לא עמד בפינהם and להרוג ולאבד first time we say בפניהם second time לפניהם, first time להרוג second time ולהרוג.
• certain places we do eicho tune
• shake the megila by איגרת הזאת, איגרת הפורים הזאת.
Shulchan oruch mentions most of them so take a look.
• we make the last brocho davka before the megila is rolled up.
I'll write some more as I remember.

What's minhag Chabad this week if there's no kohen?I asked my father last year. He said that he had heard of people combining rishoin and sheini and then splitting the parsha again later, however he did admit that it really is not such a huge problem if you just continue like regular. This is obviously if you have a leivi, makes no difference if you only have Yisroelim.

The trop "yesiv" is always found on single-syllable words only. Additionally, the yesiv trop is written before the first letter of the (single-syllable) word. Also, every trop is appears in the taamei hamikra exactly the way it should be leined i.e. mil'el vs. milra etc. The only thing that doesn't match up is the name of the yesiv is a two-syllable word with the trop appearing between the two syllables which contradicts the actual trop.Just correcting that this is not wholly correct because the words שמן and העל which we saw in recent weeks had a yesiv
R' Yaakov ZL therefore suggested that the actual name should be "tiv (siv)" with the trop appearing beforehand.

Why in the world does a person need a perfect kria more then what God said is perfect? No offense at all but what you said is what pisses me off most about this whole thing.

The source is from chabad but I don't believe it's a minhag based thing. I'll bli neder look up the source and post later.Chabad.org begs to differ:
Quote from: http://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/2833170/jewish/Halachot-Uminhagim-Laws-and-Customs-of-Purim.htm
The Chabad custom is that the berachah is recited only by the reader. It is recited before the Megillah is rolled up and only when the Megillah is read in public (with a quorum of ten men).The point is, don't say 'everyone' when you really mean all Lubavitchers. Do you know of any kehillos other than Chabad that roll it up before?

Maybe he meant that a יתיב will always be on the first syllable?That would make a lot of sense because the way we pronounce it when leining the taamei hamikra we put the meseg on the siv part not the ye part which differs from how we pronounce it when we lein.

I'm assuming that the taamim are not meakev. Main concern is the kri and kesivs.
Any tips on how to keep on top of this? Are sticky notes a good idea??

May need to lain megila for a choleh. I am the furthest thing from a Baal koreh...Have someone (who was already yotzei) with a reliable chumash/megillas esther stand near you in case of need. Make sure they don't look away for a moment.

Question is if that doesn't work..
Post by: Work-for-ur-muny on March 23, 2016, 04:12:04 PM
That would be plan a.If you have all the time on your hands and are ready to prepare sticky notes and stop momentarily during leining to check them, then why not. You should consult a sofer, though, if it's safe to stick them on the ksav. As a baal koreh I don't find it practical, but. You should also still try to see if you can get someone else.

I am the furthest thing from a Baal koreh...just as an aside if the choleh is one that will not necessarily be listening the whole time (I mean like drifting in and out) you should have the choleh make the bracha. This way you will save yourself the bracha levatala

There are at least 3 differences in פרשת בא between the ת''ת and the other חומשים. They are on the words; לכו-נא, שה תמים, לבד מטף. There is another שינוי נוסח from my great grandfather on the word קומו, but I don't believe there is a מקור for it.its from the frierdiker rebbe
Also many people have a minhag to get an aliyah this week in honour of the yortzait of the Rebbe Rayatz. So in chabad kehillos many side minyonim are made for Kria.
Once when rabbi Gordon was leining and came to the word קומו before he had a chance to say it the frierdiker rebbe said out loud the word קומו with a יתיב
Post by: schneury on March 24, 2016, 01:36:12 AM
The bracha after megillah is made after its rolled up ?? u sure ? I recall the opposite.there is a sicha from the Rebbe Purim 1956 where the Rebbe goes into a long arichus which way to do it, lmaskana the Rebbe says to make the bracha before rolling it up.
If you look on videos you see the Rebbe starts to roll up before the bracha then stops and continues after the bracha

Today I learned the rule of thumb (probably obvious to some here): pasach if its past, shva if it's future.
If I concentrate on what I'm reading, I find it easier to remember which to use.
Post by: good sam on March 19, 2019, 12:44:18 AM
Rule of the thumb: pasach is short for לה, so if the thing referred to is a known thing (ה הידיע) it's a pasach (e.g. ביום ההוא, למלך, למדינות). If not (or if it's expressly described) , it's a shva (e.g. ביום אחד, ביום שלשה עשר).
