how to say “about us” in Hebrew

 

אוֹדוֹתֵנוּ
 

 

 
Just as English has various words for about – regarding, in reference to, etc – so does Hebrew.
 
עַל    is the most common word, as in:
 
אֲנַחְנוּ לֹא מְדַבְּרִים עַל אֹתוֹ אָדָם.
We’re not talking about the same person.
 
 
Then there’s לְגַבֵּי    about, concerning, regarding – as in:
 
לְגַבֵּי הַמִּכְתָּב שֶׁלְּךָ…
About your (a male’s) letter…
 
 
And then there’s אוֹדוֹת   . This one has a higher register, so you’re not likely to hear it in conversation. You are, however, likely to see it on a website where in English you’d find “About”… or, more fully:
 
אוֹדוֹתֵנוּ
About us
