    Hebrew and Arabic are both Semitic languages which share a lot of similarities in their vocabulary. Hebrew is a Northwest Semitic language and the only living Canaanite language left in world. Ancient Hebrew went extinct as a spoken language many centuries ago. However, it survived as a liturgical language for Judaism thanks to Jewish liturgy, rabbinic literature, intra-Jewish commerce, and other texts. For this reason, Hebrew is now considered the only truly successful example of a revived dead language. In the 19th century, it was revived as a spoken and literary language. Hebrew became the lingua franca of Palestine's Jews, and subsequently the official language of the State of Israel. After Israel, the United States has the second largest Hebrew-speaking population in the world.
    Meanwhile, Arabic is a Central Semitic language and the official language of Algeria, Bahrain, Comoros, Chad, Djibouti, Egypt, Eritrea, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Malta (Maltese Arabic), Lebanon, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, SADR, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Tanzania (Zanzibar), Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, and Yemen. Arabic is also the liturgical language of Islam. Arabic has influenced some European languages, such as Spanish and to a lesser extent Portuguese, Valencian, Catalan, Sicilian, Greek and Bulgarian. Arabic has also great influenced Persian, Turkish, Spanish, Maltese, Urdu, Kashmiri, Kurdish, Bosnian, Kazakh, Bengali, Hindi, Malay, Maldivian, Indonesian, Pashto, Punjabi, Tagalog, Sindhi and Hausa and some languages in parts of Africa. In addition, Arabic has borrowed words from other languages including Greek and Persian.

      Imho, it's interesting to do a challenge of similarities between Arabic (or Hebrew) and Amharic because Amharic is also Semitic Group's language (now alive) with millions native speakers. But when i heard some sentences in Amharic and their translations i didn't see any similarity with Arabic and Hebrew there, like Amharic is not a Semitic language at all.

      Naghi Astnei Actually, no. Because official language is very different from second language. Some countries have 2,3, or 4 official languages but none are second or third languages taught in schools so she is right and it was a very beautiful statement she made because Arabic isn't a second language that is taught in Israel. In my country we have official languages that many of is never hear about and in school we don't know them and our second language is English.

      Dariush090909 Nonsense! Amaharic is absolutely Semetic. It is more similar to Hebrew than Arabic. Many nouns such as and adjectives are the same such as 'blue' and 'poor'. Also they both have similar masculine and feminine endings.

      The Canaanite languages or Hebraic languages are a subfamily of the Semitic languages, which were spoken by the ancient peoples of the Canaan region, including Canaanites, Israelites, Phoenicians, and Philistines. All of them became extinct as native languages in the early 1st millennium CE, although Hebrew remained in continuous literary and religious use among Jews, and was revived as a spoken, everyday language in the 19th century by Eliezer Ben Yehuda. The Phoenician (and especially Carthaginian) expansion spread their Canaanite language to the Western Mediterranean for a time, but there too it died out, although it seems to have survived slightly longer than in Phoenicia itself.

      I agree!
      First step: go back to Europe or the country you came from before or in 1948 when the British gave you the region by force
      It will be easy since one out of every three citizens in Israel were born abroad, and nine out of ten of the people in Israel are either immigrants or descendants of immigrants
      The only Jews who are allowed to stay in the region are the ones who were there from the beginning before the World War and were living peacefully along with muslims and christians. (and a little more can stay especially the religious peaceful ones-if there's any they can stay to worship "again peacefully" )
      ua-cam.com/video/1vaIK8wlAl0/v-deo.htmlsi=7LyNrbm4gWwtXoxA
      Here is the oldest video of Palestine Jerusalem in 1896. You can see all three religions living peacefully under the Muslim ruler. Although Jews only represented 5% of the population, 50% of them living freely in Jerusalem, so no one prevented them from living where they want near their religious sites
      Israel has no right to exist. I don't knock at your door with a gun pointing at you, saying, "My ancestors lived here 3000 years ago."
      If you support them, then you all should support the Native Americans to do the same to restore their land. Or else you're a hypocrite

Some of these Ashkenazim can pass even for Arabian peninsula Arabs, not to mention Levantine Arabs. There are also plenty of white Sephardic and Mizrahi Jews.
      Secondly, with few exceptions, Sefardi Jews no longer pronounce Hebrew properly.

You guys need to grow up. Yes I do not what the Israeli government is doing to the Palestinians but for you guys to spam the Palestinian flag thinking you guys are heroes and/or you thought you did something is very immature. You can hate the country all you want but for you the generalize every Israeli and every Jewish as a Zionist is just evil. No empathy in this world at all. Its like judging every German as a Jew Hater for what happened during N*zi Germany or calling every American fat because of stereotypes. You did not like it when arabs were called "T*rrorists" so how come its totally fine to generalize all the Israelis that? Unless the Palestinians and the Israelis make up and have a two state solution or something, there will never be peace between the two.

      Similar? They sound completely different to me. Specific words may sound like they came from the same origin (they actually did), but when you hear people speak those languages they sound completely different. Most Hebrew speaking Israelis don't understand Arabic unless they've studied it or picked some of it up from Arabic speaking friends, co workers etc, and there are many East Jerusalem Arabs (usually children, teens or people in their 20s) who don't, or barely speak Hebrew, and they can't understand the Hebrew language either.
