On the third box I noticed that you didn’t pronounce the vowel sound on the vav. Can you tell us why? Is there some rule?
It’s so exciting to sound out scripture in the original language! I am faithfully following along! Thank You for the lessons.
I learned more here in 45 min than I did in 4 hours of Hebrew class. THANKS!

So usually when there is a vowel in the chaf sofit, it’s the qamatz [ךׇ] which is pronounced as /-kha/. As you can see in the last given example the chat sofit exceptionally takes a dagesh: ךָּ (the small dote inside it) and the resulting pronunciation must be [because of this dagesh] /-ka/.

@ keighj: yes, you’re right and that’s because he passes a step in explaining.
– the chaf sofit [ך] is usually pronounced ‘kh’ very very seldom like ‘k’.
– examples: חֹשֶׁךְ chôshekh, רֵעֶךָ re’ekha, מַלְכֵּךְ malkêkh, לָךְ lakh
– example of the very rare chaf sofit pronounced as [k]: וִיחֻנֶּךָּ wichunnêkka
Well I have to admit I have misbehaved and I have gone through the first five lessons in the last two hours. I am making notes to read and reread on the train tomorrow along with my cheat sheets/ cards. But… this is where I stop. This is a bit intense. I will continue from here next time. THANK YOU FOR THESE! So much.
