how to say “topic” or “subject” in Hebrew
נוֹשֵׂא
The Hebrew root נ.שׂ.א (n.s.a) means lifting up. Thus a topic or a subject – something raised for discussion – is a נוֹשֵׂא .
.For example:
אֲנִי צָרִיךְ לְדַבֵּר אִתָּךְ עַל נוֹשֵׂא חָשׁוּב.
I need to speak with you (a female) about an important topic.
The word נושא also means subject in the grammatical sense, as in:
בְּכָל מִשְׁפָּט בְּעִבְרִית יֵשׁ נוֹשֵׂא וְנָשׂוּא.
In every sentence in Hebrew there is a subject and a predicate.
