how to say “shopping bag” in Hebrew
שַׂקִּית
Hebrew has different words for the various types of bags, but we’ll focus here on the ones you find at (or bring to) the supermarket or the department store.
The Modern-Hebrew word for this modern invention is שַׂקִּית
listen and repeat. The word derives from the Biblical שַׂק listen and repeat meaning sack (guess where the English word comes from), adding a diminutive ית- listen and repeat ending to indicate that we’re not talking about a big container made of canvas, but rather a smaller container made of nylon.
