Jonathan: shalom uvruchim ha-ba-im - Hello and welcome to

looking forward to sharing my knowledge and technique with you.

As always, I would like to mention that aside from the use of the Podcasts we have other

interactive & beneficial techniques provided on our web site. There you can access

additional audio lessons which are dedicated for deepening the knowledge acquired from

the A podcasts. If you are interested in developing and improving your Hebrew reading

skills, we also provide you with a special section for that. For all of these, please check

our web site at www.LearnHebrewPod.com . We look forward to reading your

suggestions, so don’t forget to write us with personal feedback.

Once again we welcome you to join us & share this exciting journey of learning a new

language.

Let me just start today’s lesson by saying shalom to my friends, which I believe are also

your friends by now. Liat, ma shlomech ?

Liat: lo kol kach tov , Yonatan.

Jonathan: lo kol kach tov ? lo kol kach tov ..... means not very good.

Liat: ken , Yonatan. I am very hungry. I would like to eat….

Eran: shalom Liat, shalom Yonatan. Liat, do you like fruits? I have an apple and would love

to share it with you!

Liat: Eran, that’s so nice of you. Yes, I would love some!

Jonathan: Guys, you know what? Since our planned dialogue for today is about food, why

don’t we start with that, and then we can all enjoy Eran’s apple and maybe some other

delicious fruits.

Liat: nishma tov ! - Sounds good!

Jonathan: Okay! So let’s start. As always, we will begin by reading the dialogue only in

Let’s listen to the dialogue once more at a slower pace:

Now, let’s listen just to the vocabulary of the conversation, Liat will read the new words,

and Eran will translate them into English:

o-hev

Like (when referring to a male)

sa-lat

Salad

ey-ze

What kind of

pe-rot

Fruits

ye-ra-kot

Vegetables

With

ag-van-ya

Tomato

me-la-fe-fon

Cucumber

cha-sa

Lettuce

o-he-vet

Like (when referring to a female)

ta-puz

Orange

ta-pu-ach

Apple

ba-na-na

Banana

a-na-vim

grapes

Jonathan: toda . So, connecting what we just learned to audio lesson #6-B, I wonder if

the verbs you are using o-hev and o-hevet are formed according to the ‘ pa-al ’ building

block ?

Liat: Exactly! Remember, with the ‘ pa-al ’ building block, if you are speaking to a male or

if a male is referring to himself, it will be the same conjugation.

I ask: ata o-hev ?

He says: ani o-hev .

Also if we are talking about a third person, we would say :

yonatan o-hev - Jonathan likes.

Eran: And the same goes for when I am asking Liat:

Do you like salad? - at o-hevet salat ?

She answers with the same conjugation:

ani o-hevet salat - I like salad.

And of course, you and I can have a conversation about Liat and say:

Liat o-hevet salat - Liat , likes salad .

Jonathan: Okay! So we now know that the building block of ‘ pa-al ’ does comprise of a lot

of verbs and by mastering this building block, we will be able to conjugate many Hebrew

verbs.

Eran: correct!

Liat: Do you know Jonathan, that o-hev or o-hevet has another translation other than

‘like’. Well, it is quite similar but more powerful.

Jonathan: Which is?
