how to say “username” in Hebrew

 

שֵׁם מִשְׁתַּמֵּשׁ

Can’t read Hebrew yet?

 

 
If you’re like me and you sometimes forget your username or password on one of the dozens of websites you’ve joined, raise your hand.
The Hebrew term for username is a direct translation of the English – שֵׁם מִשְׁתַּמֵּשׁ listen and repeat – where שם listen and repeat means name and משתמש listen and repeat means user or using (in the masculine).
 
 
 
For example, I sometimes click a link, whose text is:
 
שָׁכַחְתָּ שֵׁם מִשְׁתַּמֵּשׁ?
Forgot username?
 
Although the statement uses the masculine, it speaks to a general audience.
 
You’re also likely to hear Israelis refer to a username as a יוּזֶר listen and repeat.
