space shuttle - חלליתYesterday we saw that חלל[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/חללית-2.m4a” /] means space, and החלל החיצון[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/חללית-3.m4a” /] means outer space. I gave the example:

[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/חללית-4.m4a” /]אריק תמיד רצה לנסוע לחלל החיצון.

Arik has always wanted to go to outer space.

But how would he get there? With a space shuttle, of course – a חללית[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/חללית-1.m4a” /].

For example, Arik might say:

[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/חללית-5.m4a” /]מי רוצה להצטרף אלי לנסיעה בחללית?

Who wants to join me on (my) trip in a space shuttle?
