Darga (Hebrew: דַּרְגָּא) is a cantillation mark commonly found in the Torah, Haftarah, and other books. The symbol for the darga resembles a backwards Z.[1]
The darga is usually followed by a Tevir.[2] It is most often found in places where a Tevir clause has two words which are closely related.[3] The Hebrew word דַּרְגָּא translates into English as step. With the Hebrew word tevir meaning "broken," the combination of darga tevir means "broken step."
Darga can also be followed by a Munach Rivia,[4] and can (rarely) be followed by a Mercha Kefula, an altogether rare trope.[5]
