All rights reserved. www.thekefar.com HEBREW PHONICS PUZZLES Educator’s Guide Thank you for using The Kefar’s Hebrew Phonics Puzzles! These are great tools for helping learners strengthen their Hebrew spelling skills and increase their vocabularies. This Educator’s Guide will explain how to read Hebrew, and how to use these phonics puzzles with your learners. Reading Hebrew Hebrew is a Semitic language with a writing system in which every symbol (letter) represents a consonant. Vowels in Hebrew are made up of dots and dashes that are added underneath, above, or to the left of Hebrew letters. These vowels, called niqqud, help Hebrew students learn how to pronounce words. As learners become more familiar with the language, and their vocabularies increase, they are able to read words without niqqud, supplying the correct vowel sounds based on their knowledge of Hebrew. There are three vowel sounds in this Hebrew Phonics Puzzles packet: ;These vowels [ ָ ַ ] make the “ah” sound, as in father This vowel [ ֶ ] makes the “eh” sound, as in bed; and .This vowel [ ֵ ] makes the “ei” sound, as in weigh To read, blend the sound of each Hebrew letter with the vowel sound (in that order).

  • In a Cairo Genizah Fragment of Bavli Eruvin 102B–104A
    religions Article e Pronunciation of the Words “mor” and “yabolet” in a Cairo Genizah Fragment of Bavli Eruvin 102b–104a Uri Zur Department of Moreshet Israel, Ariel University, Kiryay ha-Mada, Ariel 40700, Israel; [email protected] Received: 10 February 2020; Accepted: 9 March 2020; Published: 17 March 2020 Abstract: This article refers to a Cairo Genizah fragment related to Bavli, Tractate Eruvin 102b–104a, identified as Cambridge, UL T-S F2 (2) 23. FGP No. C 98948. In the fragment, there are two words, “mor” and “yabolet”, which were written as vocalized by the scribe or copyist. Their pronunciation differs fromthat customary today, i.e., “mar” and “yabelet”. The purpose of this paper is to explain how this pronunciation was generated, the evolvement and development of this pronunciation as it appears in the fragment, and to examine whether there are additional words in other sources that were pronounced similarly. This paper begins with a description of the Genizah fragment and continues with a reproduction of the fragment itself. Keywords: Eruvin; Genizah; sugya; pronunciation; Hebrew word 1. Introduction The fragment is a segment from the Cairo Genizah, and it relates to Tractate Eruvin of the Babylonian Talmud (102b), identified as Cambridge U-L T-S F2 (2) 23 (Figure 1). Here, we shall refer to one folio of the fragment, whose number in the Friedberg Jewish Manuscript Society is C98948, selected at random. The fragment is a parchment that was damaged on the (left) outer-bottom corner. It is faded andillegible on the outer edge. The number of lines in the fragment is 44, of which 15 full lines survived atthetopof fragment.

  • Dimensions in Chumash
    Rabbi Immanuel Bernstein 2019 / 5780 DIMENSIONS IN CHUMASH Parshas Lech Lecha Concept: How Vowels Reveal the Character of a Word in Torah Our Parsha relates how Sarah, after being childless for many years, suggests to Avraham that he take her maidservant, Hagar, as a wife, which he proceeds to do. The verse then states: ָ ּוַיֹ֥בֶא אָל־הָ֖גַר ּותַ֑הַ ר ֵּ וַתֶ֙ר֙א ִּ֣ כָי ה ָ֔רָתַה ֵּ ותַ֥ק ְּל ּגִבְרת ָּ֖ה ְּבֵע ֶֽינָיה׃ He came unto Hagar and she conceived, she saw that she had conceived and her mistress (Sarah) became light in her eyes. BACKGROUND: NOTES WHICH GIVE US PAUSE There is actually something very unusual about this verse, although admittedly, it is not something we would automatically notice. As we know, there are times when the nikkud (vowelization) of a word changes. This will happen when the word appears either X At the end of a verse, or X At the strongest pause within the verse. This is known as the pausal form. Frequently in such case, a patach will change to a kamatz. A simple illustration of this idea can be seen in a verse at the beginning of our parsha,1 which reads: ּוַי ְֵּצ֗או ָלֶלֶ֙כ ַ֣ת֙ אְרָצה ְּ כנַ֔עַן ּוַיָבֹ֖ ּאו ַאְ֥רָצה ְּ כָֽנַען׃ They set out to go to the land of Canaan, and they came to the land of Canaan in the middle of the verse has a patach under the letternun , while כנען We note that the word the same word at the end of the verse has a kamatz. In light of the above, let us consider our verse.

  • Conjugation for Liberation: Hebrew Verbs for Talmud Learners
    Conjugation for Liberation: Hebrew Verbs for Talmud Learners §1 Why Learn Grammar 1 1 Why Learn Grammar Take a moment and consider: Why are you embarking on this grammar exploration? What are you hoping to learn / to be able to do? What past learning experiences are you bringing into this space? The study of grammar can often feel like a complex endeavor; as learners we can feel disempowered about the idea of “grammar” as an outside force, a source of information and rules that people around us know and understand. We often use the word “grammar” to describe all the pieces of a word or translation, or the movement from inside to outside, that we can’t quite understand. The Cambridge Dictionary defines grammar as “(the study or use of) the rules about how words change their form and combine with other words to make sentences.” Put simply, “grammar” is about the norms and the systems behind that process that we uncover as we go “inside” of words and sentences. Grammar is how we put together the words and sounds each time we reconstruct a word after dissecting it to its smallest components (a three-letter root, prefixes, suffixes, and infixes). As queer folks and folks committed to multiple ways of knowing, we may have encountered grammar as a rigid and restrictive set of rules. We know the ways in which grammatical systems have been used to disenfranchise people throughout history. Many of us have also had “grammar” weaponized against us in our own lives, and for so many of us just the idea of “grammar” can represent patriarchy and schooling.

    Why Learn Hebrew? Hebrew is an ancient language that goes back at least 3500 years to the time of Abraham and Moses. Along with Latin and Greek, Hebrew is a language that helped form our Western Civilization. It is the language of the Old Testament, or Tanach (Five Books of Moses or Torah, Prophets and Writings). It is a sister language of Aramaic, which was spoken by many of the people of the New Testament. Both languages use the same Hebrew alphabet; when you learn to read Hebrew you can read Aramaic as well. Today there are two forms of Hebrew in use, modern Hebrew, which is spoken in Israel, and biblical Hebrew, which is actually much simpler than modern Hebrew, and is used by bible scholars and lay people throughout the world to directly understand the biblical Hebrew texts. Hebrew is read ‘backwards,’ from right to left. Because of this ‘backwards’ writing, the scroll of the Torah (consisting of the Five Books of Moses) is rolled out from right to left; many books written in Hebrew are also written ‘backwards,’ starting at what we would consider the back and moving forward towards the left. Hebrew is a sparse language, with only 22 letters. The letters in the Hebrew books are the same no matter what edition is printed. The vowel sounds on the other hand, are somewhat variable depending on whether it is modern or biblical Hebrew. The Hebrew as written in the original Torah scrolls has no vowel markings, and no grammatical signs such as periods or commas.
