Anyone know who/why/when added the "-eth" consonant to the Greek "Nazoraios"? Is it related to the Germanic/Norse logographic consonant "-eth"? Was it when the bible was translated and transcribed by Germanic/Norse monasteries? Foetaldiner (talk) 13:36, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Foetaldiner The original Hebrew name is Nazareth (specifically, נָצְרַת, Nāṣĕrath, but adapted by the Greeks). It was pronounced historically with the th sound in Hebrew, and so transcribed with a theta in Greek, and as a result written with a -th in Latin. Modern Hebrew speakers can't pronounce th because the modern Hebrew language was constructed in the 1800s by people who couldn't say th and so dropped it from the pronunciation, but English Bibles preserve it in the spelling and pronunciation of names.
