Difference between “Kmo” and “Kemo”

Question

!שלום So this is a little quirk of Hebrew that I’ve never really understood. Sometimes, with the word כמו, I’ll hear people pronounce it like “Kmo” and other times like “Kemo”. Is this just a choice in pronunciation? And are there other words with flexibility like this in pronunciation? תודה רבה מראש

Answer 1

Yes, it is just a variance in pronunciation. I think it's probably more often pronounced "kmo" but you do hear both. Very much just a personal style thing.
