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).

  • Is Modern Hebrew Standard Average European? the View from European *
    Is Modern Hebrew Standard Average European? The View from European * Amir Zeldes Abstract In contrast with previous work emphasizing European influences on Modern Hebrew as compared to the Biblical Hebrew model adopted by the Hebrew revival movement, this article sets out to examine relevant typological features of Modern Hebrew in its own right. Taking the typological literature on Standard Average European as a starting point, it is argued that Modern Hebrew is in fact quite far from the European type in the majority of pertinent features defined independently of the literature on Hebrew. Notwithstanding the many European influences present in Modern Hebrew, especially in phonology and semantics, and considerable differences compared to Biblical Hebrew, it will be shown that key structural similarities with European languages are remarkably few, and in most cases not due to the revival process at all. Keywords: SAE, Ivrit, Biblical Hebrew, language contact 1. Introduction The typological nature of Modern Hebrew has been the focus of much debate since its infancy. Already in the 1920s, when the first generation of native Modern Hebrew speakers was negotiating what would become the normalized grammar of the new language, 1 views from contemporary Semitists were expressed to the effect that the language spoken by Jewish settlers in British Palestine was in some way inauthentic, ‘un-Semitic’, and in particular European: The attempt to solve that task [=the modernization of Hebrew] without preparation had to lead to a feigned solution: to a Hebrew, that in reality was a European language in transparent Hebrew disguise , with outwardly general European traits and individual language peculiarities, but with only totally superficial Hebrew character.

  • 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.

    Issues in the Representation of Pointed Hebrew in Unicode http://www.qaya.org/academic/hebrew/Issues-Hebrew-Unicode.html Issues in the Representation of Pointed Hebrew in Unicode Third draft, Peter Kirk, August 2003 1. Introduction The Hebrew block of the Unicode Standard (http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0590.pdf) is intended to include all of the characters needed for proper representation of Hebrew texts from all periods of the Hebrew language, including fully pointed and cantillated ancient texts such as that of the Hebrew Bible. It is also intended to cover other languages 1 written in Hebrew script, including Aramaic as used in biblical and other religious texts as well as Yiddish and a few other modern languages. In practice there are a number of issues and minor deficiencies in the Hebrew block as currently defined, in version 4.0 of the Unicode Standard (http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode4.0.0/), which affect its usefulness for representation of pointed Hebrew texts and of Hebrew script texts in some other languages. Some of these simply require clarification and agreed guidelines for implementers. Others require further discussion and decision, and possibly additions to the Unicode standard or other action by the Unicode Technical Committee. The conclusion reached in this paper is that two new Unicode characters should be proposed; other issues can be resolved by use of suitable sequences of existing characters, provided that such use is generally agreed by content providers and rendering systems. Several of these issues relate to different typographical conventions for publishing of Hebrew texts.
