how to say “Mars” and “Venus”… in Hebrew
I’ve got a copy of the classic guide to dating and love, Men are From Mars and Women are from Venus
, sitting on my desk. But this copy can only be read by those who can read Hebrew (get started!).

The Hebrew title is גְּבָרִים מִמַּאֲדִים וְנָשִׁים מִנֹּגַה (ge-vah-REEM mee-mah-ah-DEEM ve-nah-SHEEM mee-NOH-gah), מאדים because it’s the red planet (אָדוֹם – ah-DOHM – is red), and נוגה because Venus seems to glow brightly (נוגה means, literally, glow or brightness).
