Nipah Virus ![]() Nipah VirusAgain,... my only faith gift to the world community is to provide a way to communicate the name of this virus for even the poorest of the world with Bible syllables, especially for languages that have other types of fonts, syllabaries and/or scripts. There are other ways, of course, of finding (or coining) a suitable name for use in other languages. Ni - pah The NI (short i) syllable is found in various Bible names (or place names) and will therefore most likely be transliterated into each language: NI-ca-nor - Acts 6:5 NI-co-de-mus - John 3:1,4,9; John 7:50; John 19:39 The PA(h) possible syllables are found in various Bible names. Care must be taken, if a language distinguishes between pa and pah (likely with an aspiration - a puff of air). OT: Or-PAH - Ruth 1:4,14 Miz-PAH - Genesis 31:49 Riz-PAH - 2 Samuel 3:7; 21;8,10,11 NT: PA-ta-ra - Acts 21:1 PA-phos - Acts 13:6 PA-tro-bas Romans 16:14 Understandable Syllable Examples: Ni-pah or Ni-pa - English and for many Roman script languages νι - πα- Greek Ни - па - Russian Ni-ba - Vietnamese (all references give ba, not pa or pah) As always, a final check should be made with knowledgeable speakers of the language as needed. *************************************************************** The Bible syllables of VI-RUS are in the book: HEALTH WORDS IN THE WORD. *************************************************************** Apparently there is a closely related virus called: Hendrah virus. To find the syllables, you'd have to add unaccented e's, if a language does not have consonant blends. Example: Japanese: HEN-De-RA Japanese allows the -n to be joined to HE for the syllable HEN. For languages that can't have the C-V-C form: It would be: HE-Ne-De-RA *************************************************************** Let us pray re: this type of virus that can be found in many animal hosts and in people. *************************************************************** The World Health Organization Webpage has more information. ![]() |
