          "english": "The Omer is counted from the second night of Pesach through the night before Shavuot. • It is best to count the Omer at nightfall, immediately after the evening prayer. However, one may count at any time throughout the night. • After sunset, one should avoid saying, \"Today is the... day\" before first reciting the blessing—e.g., in response to someone who asks—for if he does so, he has already fulfilled his obligation. If, however, he only said the number of days without prefacing it with \"Today is...,\" he has not fulfilled his obligation and may recite the blessing. Nevertheless, it is best to reply with the number of days counted on the previous day. • If one forgot to count at night, he should count during the day without a blessing, and may count with a blessing on the subsequent nights. If he forgot to count during the day as well, he must count on the rest of the nights without a blessing. If one is in doubt as to whether he had counted on the previous night, and did not count during the day, he may continue counting with a blessing. • Before counting the Omer, one should not begin eating (even a light meal) within half an hour before twilight.",
