תעתיק של הכתוביות בעברית
אהלן חברים יקרים
המילה “עמית” פירושה “זולת”
זה שעומד מולי
ולכן היא קשורה גם למילה “לעומת”
זה לעומת זה
למה? כי “לעומת” זה אומר “זה שעומד מול דבר אחר”
המילה “עמית” קשורה כנראה גם למילים “עִם”
שזה חיבור של שני דברים
וגם, כנראה, למילה “עַם”
שזה בעצם אנשים שמחוברים ביחד
וכשאנשים בתוך העם, נגיד
רוצים להתחרות זה בזה
אז הם יכולים להתעמת זה עם זה
טוב, זהו חברים, להתראות
Transcript of English subtitles
Hello dear friends
The word עמית-colleague means “an other”
the one standing opposite me
so it is also related to the word “versus”
this versus that
Why? Because לעומת-versus means “that which stands opposite something else”
The word עמית is probably also related to the words עִם-with
which is two things connected to each other
and also, probably, to the word עַם-nation
which is people connected together
And when people in the nation, say
want to compete with each other
then they can להתעמת-confront each other
Well, that’s all friends, see you later
