HaSaffa HaYaffim shell HaIvrit


Is that right? confuse

Almost

Ivrit Saffa Yaffa - Hebrew is a beautiful language.



omfg Where are the Ha's gone???


disbelief


You don't say The Hebrew. you just say Hebrew. so no need for Ha (the)



But it was "The Beautiful Language of Hebrew".


It should say:

HaSaffa Hayaffa Shell HaIvrit



woot! I nearly got it right!!! party

Tov... pronounced Tov, as in... hmmm.. "ox"?


more like Toe


both as in "toe"? See, I would have said it and I would have said it all wrong!

lol

Yes, both.
We don't have too many ways to promounce 'O'.
It's very short. like Oh, but without the 'W' in the end as in owe.
'A' sounds like 'Ah'.

How do you say, "How are you?"

tough question...

Eih Ata Margish? - How are you feeling (asking a male)
Eih At Margisha? - How are you feeling (asking a female)

Ata - you (m)
At - you (f)

In hebrew we usually ask:
Ma Nishma? - How does it sound? (verbal translation) (hebrew version of 'How's it going?')


Ma Nishma?

I am going to practice that. How do you say that you're fine or the hebrew version of that.

That is how I did it with czech... practiced certain phrases... and worked my way up... working, I should say.



I love learning new languages, it is funny, but once you get through the basics, then you can learn so much quicker.

eek We will only know how to write it, and not speak it though! We are Mute Ivrits! lol


You drooled over something that was NOT pizza! HAHA! lol


Pizza - Pizza

lol

Ah, it just means that we don't know Hebrew and so we assumed it was telling us the name of the word, and not the name of the letter! Silly us!

That second chart, where you're looking at the English words, if you notice, they have one letter that is bolded. Those words are just examples of how the letter sounds. the bolded letter is the sound of the hebrew letter.
