Question
What are the most preferred methods for reading Shnaim Mikra Ve'echad Targum?
Answer
There are two preferred methods for reading Shnaim Mikra Ve'echad Targum: a) to read each verse twice and then the translation of that verse. b) to read each open or closed section twice and then read the translation. And one does as one does, and one does as one does. Some have the custom initially to read once (besides the second reading and translation which are read separately) with the Baal Koreh, and they have what to rely on.
