Hebrew Verbs, I’ve been trying to learn Hebrew on my own for about 8 years and I signed up with Rosetta Stone last year but it’s only helped me with vocabulary.
Hi there. I truly believe that the beginning shoudl be with a good teacher. Otherwise the student does not get the foundation right and struggles unnecessary. Did you ever look around Italki?
hello. thanks for writing. They both translated with "to say" in English". להגיד has mainly disappeared and is only used as imperative, any other grammatical tense is not in use any longer. I am happy to see that you have found a way of comparing them to use the correct imperative. Unfortunately that does not work with languages other than English ;-)
You make learning so fun!! את טוב מורה ואהבתי את כי את את לי שימח . I try to say I love you because you make me happy. I wanted to say I love you because you put a smile on my face. I know sim is put? And face panim . don't know the word for smile. I know I conjugate bad. But I try and love correction .
So if I got that right, in past and present tense we will use the conjugation of the verb לומר, and in general, to stay on the safe side, we will use the infinitive, future tense and imperative of the verb להגיד. Did I got that right?
Thank you for the explanation about תגיד. I hear that word in many Hebrew songs but often expressed as תגיד לי... Is this proper Hebrew? .. BTW... Got your books today... Hope they are as good as your videos..
Hello, Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. The reason I do not put romanization is that it is more confusing that helping. Let me explain: if there is a need for romanization, then only because the reading of the Hebrew letter is not yet fully understood. If that is the case, then it makes no sense yet to go into depth with the Hebrew language. The reading and writing of the Hebrew letter is the most basic foundation. Without it, there is not long-term success. Romanization is a comfort pill that will fire back at you later. I am sorry if this is not the answer you are looking for, but believe me, my only interest is the students's long-term success and romanization is rather a block, even though a tempting one.
dear mrs prof ! i have a question concerning the verbal system in hebrew, i wonder if you could explain why לגור (to get up) לשׁמוע (to listen) לרצות (to want) לדבּר (to speak) להזמין (to order) להתלבּשׁ (to get dressed) and finally להיכּנס (to come in) belong to 7 different categories ?
Thank you for making these videos! Your voice inflection and wit do keep my attention, and now I can understand enough to finally have some hope.
Thank you!! how long have you been studying?

MUY INTERESANTE GRACIAS
Now I know the imperative of omeret! Todah rabah.
After graduating college i finally have the time to learn hebrew again. As always, you are an excellent tracher !! Toda raba!
Thank you!! Toda raba!
You are very welcome
It's my understanding that לומר is to say and להגיד is to tell. So it makes sense that להגיד is used as the imperative.

excellent summary! using it for the other times is not "wrong" but quite outdated ;-)

Thank you so much for your interest and support. About your question: in English it is always "Tell me!" but in Hebrew the "me" can also be dropped.
תודה!
Your videos are great but can you please put the romanization

Languages are not logic. Searching for logic is a waste of time. Accept things as they are and move on. It will speed up your learning.
the logic behind the Semitic languages in general are profoundly different to the one underlying all Latin based languages
Why omAr for 1st person present, and not omEr (with tsere)?
We usually see ואִמרו אמן as the imperative in UK congregations haha
