	JewishEncyclopedia.com - DAGESH:
		The use of "dagesh" as the name of the point indicating the intensified pronunciation is only a secondary one, for in the old Masoretic texts and in the Maḥzor Vitry (ed.
		Graetz has shown that the use of the dagesh is anterior to the use of the vowel-points, for which it was, in a measure, a substitute.
		In the St. Petersburg codex of the Prophets, also, dagesh forte is represented by a line over the preceding vowel; dagesh lene, by a point in the letter as in the Tiberian system.

	Dotted Letters in Hebrew
		A dagesh forte “emphasizes” a letter and thereby affects a word's syllabification by doubling the value of the consonant.
		The rule goes like this: the dagesh in a Begedkephat letter is chazak (forte) only if it is preceded by a vowel (otherwise it is lene).
		The pronunciation of Resh in Hebrew is “fricative,” and a plosive pronunciation for Resh is not known.

	Morsels of Hebrew Grammar
		The pronunciation for the letters with a Dagesh is plosive, that is to say one blocks the passage of the air in the vocal tract at one of the five points of articulation and releases suddenly; the escaping air makes the sound of the letter.
		The letters without a Dagesh are pronounced by allowing the air to pass through the same points of articulation slowly, thereby creating friction which makes the sound of the letter.
		Thus, for example, to pronounce a Bet with a Dagesh one blocks the passage of the air with the lips and opens them suddenly to allow the air to escape.

		According to Rashi the Mem is compensated for with a Dagesh beforehand.
		Generally a Dagesh is placed in a letter to compensate for a missing letter before the Dagesh.
		In cases where no Dagesh can be placed in the following letter such as by an Alef or Ayin that follow a Heh Hayedeyah, since no Dagesh is given to the Ayin, we compensate by placing a Kamatz in the letter Kaf instead of the usual Patach.
