If you’ve got some basic Hebrew, you probably know the word for shoes – נעליים[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/נעלי-ספורט-2.m4a” /].
But there are different types of shoes, such as נעלי ריקוד[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/נעלי-ספורט-3.m4a” /] – dancing shoes, נעלי ריצה[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/נעלי-ספורט-4.m4a” /] – running shoes and נעלי טניס[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/נעלי-ספורט-5.m4a” /] – tennis shoes.
Israelis are likely to call any pair of shoes used on a sports field and in other places requiring strenuous activity, נעלי ספורט[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/נעלי-ספורט-6.m4a” /].
For example:
[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/נעלי-ספורט-7.m4a” /]אנחנו מתחילים לטפס על ההר – רגע, לא הבאת נעלי ספורט?
We’re starting to climb the mountain – one moment, you (a male) didn’t bring sporting shoes?
