[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/מורה-פרטי-#.m4a” /]מוֹרֶה פְּרָטִי If you’ve been to a Hebrew class before, you probably know the word for teacher – מורֶה[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/מורה-פרטי-#.m4a” /] if he’s a male and מורָה[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/מורה-פרטי-#.m4a” /] if she’s a female. Kids use המורָה[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/מורה-פרטי-#.m4a” /] and המורֶה[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/מורה-פרטי-#.m4a” /] – literally, the teacher – to refer to their teacher, just like English speaking…
[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/עד-הבית-#.m4a” /]עַד הַבַּיִת Expressions often don’t translate literally between languages. One example is the English to your doorstep, which in Hebrew is עד הבית[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/עד-הבית-#.m4a” /] – literally, until your (the) house. For example: [audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/עד-הבית-#.m4a” /]אנחנו עושים משלוחים חינם עד הבית. We do free deliveries to your doorstep.
[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/משלוח-חינם-#.m4a” /]מִשְׁלוֹחַ חִנָּם To send is לשלוח[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/משלוח-חינם-#.m4a” /]. Likewise, a delivery, as well as shipping – that which is sent – is משלוח[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/משלוח-חינם-#.m4a” /]. For example: [audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/משלוח-חינם-#.m4a” /]כמה עולה המשלוח? How much is the shipping? Free in the sense of zero payment, in Hebrew, is חינם[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/משלוח-חינם-#.m4a” /]. Thus free delivery is משלוח חינם[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/משלוח-חינם-#.m4a”…
[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/מחיר-#.m4a” /]מְחִיר The Hebrew word for price – מחיר[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/מחיר-#.m4a” /] – sounds like it might be related to למכור[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/מחיר-#.m4a” /] – to sell, which in the past tense is מכרתי[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/מחיר-#.m4a” /] – I sold, מכרנו[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/מחיר-#.m4a” /] – we sold, etc. But the roots are different: the root of מחיר is מ.ח.ר[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/מחיר-#.m4a” /],…
