“a rainy day” and “dreams coming true” in Hebrew

 

גָּשׁוּם, לְהַגְשִׁים



Today was a rainy one here in Jerusalem.

from jerusalemshots.com

A rainy day is יוֹם גָּשׁוּם (yohm gah-SHOOM). 


Now גֶּשֶׁם (GHEH-shem) is rain, but it’s also the concept of materialism in certain contexts.


To materialize or realize a dream – or to make a dream come true – is לְהַגְשִׁים חָלוֹם (le-hahg-SHEEM khah-LOHM). 


להגשים is a “causative” הפעיל (heef-EEL) verb.
