how to say “elections” in Hebrew
having trouble seeing the print?
בְּחִירוֹת
The Hebrew word for to choose is לִבְחוֹר 
, an active-simple פָּעַל verb of the root ב.ח.ר (b.kh.r). Thus a choice is a בְּחִירָה , and choices or elections are בְּחִירוֹת.
For example:
מָחָר יִתְקַיְּמוּ הַבְּחִירוֹת בְּאַרְצוֹת הַבְּרִית.
Tomorrow the elections will take place in the United States.
Parenthetically, don’t confuse the word בחירה – a choice – with בְּחִילָה, nausea.
, nausea. To vote is a different word, which I’ll introduce tomorrow.
