Ammaron / Ammoron - Variant Spelling
- 4 Nephi 1:47 1: Ammoron > Ammaron A: Ammaron - 4 Nephi 1:48, 49; Mormon 1:2a, 1:2b, 5; 2:17a, 17b, 17c; 4:23 1: Ammoron A: Ammaron
Discussion: The 1830 edition, which was set from 0, always spelled the name as Ammaron. In 1, Scribe 2 consistently wrote it as Ammoron, although it is fairly evident from other instances in this manuscript that Scribe 2 often wrote "actual a's as o's."
General Summary: Skousen accepts Ammaron as the proper spelling
