Free Hebrew lessons – June 2010 – Training – Day 26:

Shalom,

 

—> Hint:  don’t miss the last part of this lesson…

Some of you have asked me to give shorter lessons… we live in a busy world… ;-)  So, from now on our lessons will not be as long, but if any of you want to learn more, please feel free to nag me via our Heblish group on Facebook, and I will help you to learn more Hebrew.

Today we’ll talk about the most important subject in our life – our kids. 

In our previous lesson I simply showed you 4 pictures – a cat (^atul), a bird (tsipor), fly and flies (zvuv/zvuvim) and a beautiful photo of a peacock (tavas).

In lesson 21 I taught you how to say ima (mother / mom), aba (father / daddy), a^ (brother), a^ot (sister), savta (grandmother / grandma) and saba (grandfather / grandpa). But that’s only part of our family…

Today’s menu: Our sweetest treasure

Attention: The underlined letters represent the accent.

Note:  Remember, the “^” has an unusual sound.  Listen to it again:

   – His son is fat – ha’ben shelo shamen (Shamen for a fat masculine).

That’s all for today.   

And now for your “Hint”…

Don’t miss that meeting…

Free Heblish Challenge – May 2010 – Training – Day 21:

Shalom ima (hello, Mom)!

Day 21 and today I won’t bother you with a mountain of words. 

In our previous lesson we read the beginning of Conny’s story, corrected her Heblish and also learned many new Hebrew words such as: yom (day), hayom (today), ^adash (new), kniyot (shopping), kesef (money), etc… If you need a refresher, please go back to the end of lesson 20 and look at the table of new words we learned in that lesson.

Today I planned to continue with Conny’s story – but since Sunday is the Mother’s Day holiday, we will take a break and continue with Conny’s story next week.
