First of all, it's yud hey vav hey, and that is how it is spelled in Hebrew. Your pronunciation "Ehwhay" is backwards from how it is spelled in Hebrew. That would be spelling it hey vav hey yud.
Either way, I cannot spell it out in Hebrew for you because we do not write the sacred name of G-d down, especially something like a yahoo question and answers section, nor will I try to pronounce it to you, as we do not speak it aloud either.

No because they do read right ot left. If they read left to right it wopuld still be yahweh because they would write it the other way around.

we do now pronounce the name of God, which is what you're trying to spell.
