# The minhag is to say the Pesukim of [[Birkat Cohanim]] and the משניות of Elu Devarim after Birchot HaTorah. If one did not learn then, it is a dispute whether one fulfilled one’s obligation and so one should have intent to fulfill one’s obligation with the bracha of Ahava Rabba. <Ref>Shulchan Aruch 47:9-10, Mishna Brurah 47:19-20 </ref>

# There is a dispute whether the first bracha of Birchot HaTorah includes Haarev Nah or not. In light of this, there is a dispute whether one should answer [[Amen]] if one hears someone finish the bracha of LaAsok BeDivrei Torah, for Ashkenazim, or Al Divrei Torah, for Sephardim. Therefore, some advise saying this bracha quietly so that the listener will not be in doubt whether to answer [[Amen]] or not. <ref>Kitzur Shulchan Aruch 7:1</ref><br />

## VeHaRev Nah Hashem Elokenu… Halomed Torah LeAmo Yisrael. <ref> Shulchan Aruch 47:6 rules that the bracha of HaRev Nah begins with the letter Vav to connect it to the last bracha. The Rama writes that though others hold that one should say it without a Vav, it is better to say it with a Vav. Magen Avraham 47:4 explains that the Vav shows that the first and following brachot are really one long bracha, and the opinion that the Rama quotes who argues that there should be no Vav holds that they are considered two separate brachot. Mishna Brurah 47:11 agrees.</ref>
