sefirat ha omer - Sefira Nuschaos Differences


What are the differences between the various Nuschaos in Sefiras Haomer (e.g. Ashkenaz says this, Sefard says that...)?



Answer



To tie up everything that's been said (and more):



  • Nusach Ashkenaz generally say BaOmer at the end


  • Nusach Sefard generally say LaOmer at the end

  • Nusach of Sefardim (i.e. Edut Mizrach) say LaOmer before the weeks

  • Nusach of Teiman say the count like the Nusach of Sefardim, except they say it in Aramaic [and say baomer(?)]

  • I have seen (and not confirmed) that Nusach of Italian say the word LaOmer directly after Hayom


For example, on the 22nd day of the Omer:



  • Ashkenaz: הַיּוֹם שְׁנַיִם וְעֶשְׂרִים יוֹם שֶׁהֵם שְׁלֹשָׁה שָׁבוּעוֹת וְיוֹם אֶחָד בָּעֹמֶר

  • Sefard: הַיּוֹם שְׁנַיִם וְעֶשְׂרִים יוֹם שֶׁהֵם שְׁלֹשָׁה שָׁבוּעוֹת וְיוֹם אֶחָד לָעֹמֶר

  • Sefardi: הַיּוֹם שְׁנַיִם וְעֶשְׂרִים יוֹם לָעֹמֶר שֶׁהֵם שְׁלֹשָׁה שָׁבוּעוֹת וְיוֹם אֶחָד


  • Teiman: הַאידַּאנָא עַשׂרִין וּתרֵין יוֹמֵי בְּעֻמרָא, דְּאִנּוּן תְּלָתָא שָׁבוּעֵי וְחַד יוֹמָא

  • Italian: הַיּוֹם לָעֹמֶר שְׁנַיִם וְעֶשְׂרִים יוֹם שֶׁהֵם שְׁלֹשָׁה שָׁבוּעוֹת וְיוֹם אֶחָד


Also note: the Leshem Yichud also varies based on Nusach.
