	For purposes of weak conjugations/declensions, all pharyngeals and glottal's are considered "~~gutteral's~~".		For purposes of weak conjugations/declensions, all pharyngeals and glottal's are considered "gutturals". For the "begadkepat" letter, they are in free variation between stops and fricatives. However, most people say them as fricatives intervocalically and as stops elsewhere. (When they are doubled, they are always stops.) However, in spelling certain foreign words and in full-spelling, it is possible to distinguish between the sounds by a dot above for the stop, and a dot below for the fricative.
