How do you say line in Hebrew? Depends on what you’re talking about.

A line of items placed physically one after the other is a שורה[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/קו-אוטובוס-#.m4a” /].

A line you have to wait in at the bank is a תור[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/קו-אוטובוס-#.m4a” /].

And a line of production… or of a bus is קו[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/קו-אוטובוס-#.m4a” /], so that a bus line is קו אוטובוס[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/קו-אוטובוס-#.m4a” /].

For example:
