how to say “to hang in there” in Hebrew
having trouble seeing the print?
It’s Thursday, almost the weekend. Hang in there.
In Hebrew, I’d say to you, תַּחְזִיקוּ מַעֲמָד (tahkh-ZEE-koo mah-ah-MAHD), which means, literally, hold stance, in the plural (since I’m writing to more than one person).
To “hang in there” is לְהַחְזִיק מעמד (leh-hahkh-ZEEK mah-ah-MAHD). This Hebrew expression can also refer to an object remaining intact.
מעמד comes from the root ע.מ.ד (a.m.d), which means standing.
להחזיק, to hold, comes from the root ח.ז.ק (kh.z.k), meaning strong; holding something requires strength. להחזיק is an active-causative verb.
