פַּעֲמוֹן (ปาอฺะโมน) ช. (พหูพจน์ไม่ชี้เฉพาะ פַּעֲמוֹנִים, สมาสเอกพจน์ פַּעֲמוֹן־)

Like other words that start with ב (วฺ),‎ ג (กฺ),‎ ד (ด),‎ כ (ฅ),‎ פ (ฟ),‎ or ת (ต), this term's initial letter takes a dagesh lene. In older texts, that dagesh is usually dropped when the word is preceded, in the same phrase, by a word ending in a mater lectionis; in modern texts, the dagesh is usually preserved even in such a case. Likewise, in older texts, the dagesh is always dropped when the word is prefixed by an indefinite ב־ (วฺ-)‏,‎ כ־ (ฅ-)‏,‎ or ל־ (ล-)‏, or by ו־ (ว-)‏; in modern speech, the dagesh is often preserved in such a case. (After the definite ב־ (วฺ-)‏,‎ כ־ (ฅ-)‏,‎ and ל־ (ล-)‏, and after the prefixes ה־ (ฮ-)‏,‎ מ־ (ม-)‏,‎ and ש־ (ซ-)‏, there is a dagesh forte, as described in the usage notes for those prefixes.)
