how to say “wonderful” in Hebrew

 

נֶהֱדָר
 

 

 
Like English, Hebrew has lots of words to describe something as great. Some of these are מְצֻיָּן    excellent, מְעֻלֶּה    excellent or of great quality, and נֶהֱדָר    wonderful or glorious.
 
It can also mean beautiful.
 
For example:
 
אַתְּ נִרְאֵת נֶהֱדָר.
You (a female) look fantastic.
 
 
It’s the masculine נהדר and not the feminine נֶהֱדֶרֶת   , as the word is used here to describe how the woman looks, not the woman herself.
 
The root of נהדר is ה.ד.ר (h.d.r) meaning glory.
