Siddur Transliterated Linear - Sabbath and Festivals - Seif Edition - Nusach Ashkenaz

I love that is has explanation why prayers said in the begging of each section. Really helps to learn the language.

I love this beautiful siddur! Super helpful for those learning hebrew.

I got the Nusach Ashkenaz. I like that there are introductions and preface. Fonts are readable. The only part that has no transliteration are the Torah Readings. Primarily because they do not want to have a mistake in its translation. If there's a Nusach Sefard, I might purchase also..

First of all, I grew up in a totally assimilated part of Brooklyn, and couldn't read Hebrew to save my life. As a matter of fact, I even transliterated my entire Haftorah portion the night before my Bar Mitzvah, as my Hebrew reading level was around the level of a 1st grader, and it has stayed like that until I discovered this Siddur. I first was introduced to this Siddur about 4 years ago at the Manhattan Jewish Experience, a beginner's service on the Upper West Side. I was amazed at how all these seemingly liturgistically-ignorant young Jews mastered the choreography of Jewish prayer so well. I, too, felt empowered when I went there, and everyone else was using the same Siddur. I then went out and bought it, along with the Weekday one. I started davening in my home every day with it, and started taking my Shabbos one with me to more local shuls so I could "fake it" amongst the more Jewishly-educated Jews. I still use the Siddurs, four years later. However, my Hebrew reading skills have improved about 30%, as about 1/3 of the time, when I'm not in a rush, I actually sit there and say the prayers from the original Hebrew. When I get stuck, all I have to do is glance over at the English. But the next time, I don't get stuck. It's a slow process, but if you are like me, with no patience or time to actually master the Hebrew language, then this Siddur is for YOU! You probably won't be fluent in the liturgy right away, but you will most definitely be empowered, and five years down the road, you will actually know much more Hebrew than you do now!

I am learning to read and write Hebrew and I love these prayers, transliterated (for now) until I have learned more Hebrew. Thank you!

Great value for the price.

Love the Siddur but it was blemished already when I took it out of the package. Looks like someone spilled on it. :(

I am so excited to start davening using this siddur, because I don't yet read Hebrew and I want to learn the Hebrew words to the prayers! (Reading the English meaning is nice enough and all, but at some point you want to daven! And just listening to the others pray is not that helpful--the well-versed pray incredibly quickly!) The book is (physically) of the strong quality that Artscroll is known for. When you want a quality text, you can't go wrong with Artscroll! Textually, my only comment to potential purchasers is that the pages in the transliterated siddur do not match up with the pages in the non-transliterated siddur--and in fact, the prayers are organized a little differently so you couldn't even do the math by just subtracting 20 pages or something like that. Buyers will need some familiarity with the order of prayers and services in order to keep up.

This book is fantastic for all Hebrew prayers from sunset Friday to sunset Saturday night , easy to read Hebrew and English underneath and it is. Beautifully presented definitely recommend

Ein sehr guter Siddur. Man muss allerdings berücksichtigen, dass die lineare Umschreibung des Hebräischen auf der Aschkenasischen Aussprache beruht. Für manchen, der neues Hebräische gelernt hat, aber mit dem Lesen nicht nicht so vertraut ist, kann das mit Schwierigkeiten verbunden sein, da in Israel z.T. auch in aschkenasischen Synagogen die sephardische Aussprache angewendet wird.

Exceptional quality. We don't read Hewbrew, all our prayers are done in English, but I want to kids to at least learn and I feel a lot closer to Jerusalem being able to say the blessings in the language. The siddur is well laid out, easy to follow, with notes to help guide you. The cover is a work of art, and it's great how much effort went into producing this. Shabbat feels much more "real" with this volume. As an aside, as some do not list as much, this is the Ashkenazi type siddur.

Great to have own Siddur at home

Perfect
