Good morning translation into Hebrew. What do Jews want each other? Greetings Handbook. Taim Rezach טעים רצח
Sign up for a Hebrew course. It doesn’t really matter what the format is: classes with a tutor, attending a language school or an elective at the university. The important thing is that all this will strengthen your intention to learn the language. If you live in Israel, you can write down “ulpan” or “ulpanim” for language courses, where you will live and breathe Hebrew, Hebrew and Hebrew again.
Immerse yourself in the culture of Israel and the Jewish people. Listen to Israeli radio, watch Israeli films, read Israeli books - but, of course, if everything is in Hebrew.
Get children's books in Hebrew. Many Disney works have been translated into Hebrew, although Israeli literature itself still has something to offer children!
- Children's books can be bought at any bookstore in Israel.
- At community Jewish centers, too, one can often find a library with modern and classical works for readers of all ages.
Learn how to pronounce the guttural sound [r] and the sound "hat" (as in the German "bach"). In modern phonetic system these two sounds are almost the main ones, while they are not in the English language.
In Hebrew, nouns and verbs have two genders, masculine and feminine. Like other Semitic and many European languages, Hebrew has a grammatical gender category applicable to subjects and objects. As a rule, masculine words are devoid of endings, and feminine words end in "it" or "ah".
Learn basic Hebrew words (note that "kh" and "ch" are Latin transliterations of the "h" sound)

Language of Israel
What is the language in Israel
In the Israeli state, Hebrew is spoken. It is the state language of Israel, revived in the 20th century. Worldwide, over 8 million people speak Hebrew. In the period from 113 to 7 centuries BC, it was strengthened as an independent language of the Semites.
One of the features that the language of Israel has is the use of a conjugate construction to form new nouns: beit-sefer (school) comes from the words bayit (house) and sefer (book).
The Israeli alphabet is represented by a square script (alef-bet), it has 22 letters. The writing also uses Aramaic and Yiddish.
Although the official language of Israel is Hebrew, 20% of the population speaks Russian. Basically, these are immigrants from the countries of the USSR and modern Russia. It is worth saying that moving to this country under the repatriation program, people first of all begin to learn the language of Israel.
Israel is a multilingual country. Hebrew and Arabic are both state languages. In addition, English, Spanish, French, as well as Persian, Russian, Amharic (Ethiopian), Romanian, Chinese and Thai are widely spoken.
Hebrew is a young language and at the same time has a centuries-old history. Its consonantal alphabet has 22 letters. Hebrew belongs to the Semitic group, which also includes Aramaic, Arabic, Amharic and others.
Yiddish is spoken by Orthodox Jews in Israel. And they speak it very actively. Children under the age of 4-5 do not know Hebrew at all and speak only Yiddish with their parents. Moreover, at school (heider), all Orthodox Jews master both literary and colloquial Hebrew to perfection. But among themselves they only speak Yiddish - apparently they don’t want to desecrate the “holy language” household issues. So Yiddish can rightfully be considered the fourth spoken language of Israel.
Tourists who decide to visit Israel, I advise you to learn some words and phrases in Hebrew at your leisure. This will facilitate your communication with the local population.
