how to say “horrendous” in Hebrew
[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/זוועתי-#.m4a” /]זְוָעָתִי
The Hebrew word for bad is רע[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/זוועתי-#.m4a” /], but you’ll hardly ever hear it. Instead, you’ll get more colorful, exaggerated expressions like זוועה[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/זוועתי-#.m4a” /] – a horror, which in adjective form is זוועתי[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/זוועתי-#.m4a” /] – horrendous.
For example:
[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/זוועתי-#.m4a” /]הציור הזה הוא פשוט זוועתי.
This painting is simply horrendous.
