An uncle in Hebrew is דוד[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/דודים-#.m4a” /], while an aunt is דודה[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/דודים-#.m4a” /].
For example:
[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/דודים-#.m4a” /]יש לי שלוש דודות.
I have three aunts.
The words originally meant beloved one, which is also the meaning behind the name דויד[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/דודים-#.m4a” /] (also spelled דוד) – David.
