Aramaic Mnemonics in Codex Leningradensis

This article outlines the nature and extent of the Aramaic mnemonics which occur in some Masorah magna notes in Codex Leningradensis. The various problems involved in the interpretation of these mnemonics are discussed, and a practical suggestion is offered concerning how these mnemonics may be useful for modern scholars. A complete list of the Aramaic mnemonics—along with translations, references to the biblical text, and notes—is given in the appendix.
