There are more than two ways to write baruch. There is no English letter or combination of letters that makes the sound of כ (khaf), so there are several ways to transliterate this sound: ch, kh, h, ħ, ĥ, ḥ j or x.

So the word ברוך can be written:

  1. baruch
  2. barukh
  3. baruh
  4. baruħ
  5. baruĥ
  6. baruḥ
  7. barux
  8. baruj (Spanish)
Note that the final consonant of "baruch" is a rasping sound which is absent in several languages; hence the ambiguity in its transliteration. Interestingly, in Early French and Spanish, this sound existed - that's the Spanish X - but has since softened completely. And in Russian, Polish, Dutch and German, this sound still exists.
