The Hebrew word for lice has been around since biblical times: כינים[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/כינים-#.m4a” /].

A single louse is כינה[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/כינים-#.m4a” /].

For example:

I washed her hair and removed the louse.
