how to say “preparations” in Hebrew

 

הֲכָנוֹת
 

 

 
The word for to prepare something, in Hebrew, is the active-causative verb לְהָכִין  . The root is כ.ו.נ (k.w.n), the same as many common Hebrew words including כֵּן   yes and נָכוֹן   correct.
 
For example:
 
הֵכַנְתִּי אֲרֻחַת עֶרֶב טְעִימָה מְאֹד.
I prepared a very tasty dinner.
 
 
Likewise, preparation is הֲכָנָה  .
 
For example:
 
הַהֲכָנוֹת בְּעִצּוּמָן לִקְרַאת חַג הַפֶּסַח.
The preparations are in full swing for the Passover holiday.
