Daled in front of Hashem's name

Question:

Hello,
When there is a daled in front of Hashem's name (for example, in uva l'tzion), should it be pronounced "da'ado..." or "dado...", as the Moshe/Kalev rule does not apply to the letter daled? I see that this question was asked a few years back on this site and the answer given seems to have been that this rule does not apply to Aramaic, but in that case what would the proper way be to pronounce Hashem's name in this situation?
Thank you in advance for your reply.

 

Answer:

Hello,

It would be da'ado, because it essentially is two words which mean “the name of Hashem, therefore it would get, sight pause in between the two of them.

Best wishes
