how to say “to locate” something or someone in Hebrew
If you’ve been following קצת עברית (Ktzat Ivrit) for a while, you likely know the word for site – אֲתָר (ah-TAHR). The word is borrowed from Aramaic, creating a synonym for מָקוֹם (mah-KOHM) – place. To refer to a website in Hebrew, you’d say אֲתָר אִינְטֶרְנֶט (ah-TAHR EEN-tehr-net).
To locate something or someone is לְאַתֵּר (le-ah-TEHR). For example, אִתַּרְנוּ אֶת הַמִּסְעָדָה (ee-TAHR-noo et hah-mees-ah-DAH) – We located the restaurant.
לאתר is a פיעל (piel) usage of the root א.ת.ר (a.t.r).
Do you wish you could speak Hebrew?
If so, we can help you לְהַגְשִׁים (le-hahg-SHEEM) – realize – your dream.
