Just so Guido#1 doesn't feel lonely, I should say that I use mojaq, also
for no good reason. This doesn't make charghwI' any closer to wrong; what
he says above is quite correct. Just be expected to be asked about
whichever spelling you use when someone can't find it in the dictionary,
that's all.
There's a saying in the Talmud, regarding arguments: These and these
[i.e. both sides of the argument] are the words of the living God. Leaving
out the theology, the concept may be applicable.
