High School – RULES

29/11/17 – HEBREW VERBS

Verbs have a core of 3 ‘root letters’. There are 7 groups of verbs.

 

29/11/17 – 1st Group (‘PAAL’) – regular verb

1st group verbs are usually used to express a simple action.

Example:   לִרְקוֹד = To dance

The Lamed at the beginning means ‘to’

The root letters are RESH KOOF DALET – these letters always stay; what goes around the 3 letters depends on who dances and when.

22/11/17 – reading exceptions

Reading in Hebrew is very straightforward. There are only few exceptions :

-If a word ends with the letter Het ח, it will always end with the sound aH (not Ha or Hoo etc…)

-if a word ends in yud-vav יו, it will end with the sound av (not eev).

 

15/11/17 – the past – taster

When a verb ends in   [….tee] (whatever the group of the verb),

‘I’ is the subject and it’s happening in the past.

Examples:

ידעתי [yadatee] I knew
רקדתי [rakadtee] I danced
דיברתי [deebartee] I spoke
הסתכלתי [histakaltee] I watched

There is not verb TO BE in the present, for example to say I AM BIG we just say ‘I BIG’  [ani gadol]  אני גדול
