Hell Elinor you are writing in עברית very good well done -- just notice the spelling I think you know this has aiin NOT yud in beginning- yes עברית ok
well done you are making progress to be writing in Ivrit
Ze mamash lo kal - it's a very big challenge -- so even a few words a day are fine!! can I just say the best way to learn is also to actually read -- If you can it will make you more familiar with the words -- spelling -- I always confuse for example -- ה and א for example and also ח and כ
when in doubt -- use כ because it is often more common!! unless the sound is very strong then it is ח -- ok kol hakavod
ve gam Baruch Ha'Baa "Welcome" to Angelina -- it's always nice to hear
about other people who like the language -- out of all the languages in the world -- it is a big compliment --

I hope I made sense, G-d it is so hard to write because one is so unsure if the dictation is correct, but oh, that feels so Good!![]()

Well, I guess this word" Ha'itkadmout" which means advancements or something like that is from the same roots as " kadima". Because when I was reading long back about the formation of the party, I understood that meant to go forward. I like the way Hebrew words are related to one another, and if I get the system in my head, I guess it gets easier to produce words from the same roots.
How you say Greek in Hebrew? I am trying to read what babylon is reflecting: yovon?
Well, I guess at least because of " Zorba the Greek" I would love to learn their language too, and because of all these very good looking people I see demonstrating down the roads, I guess there is a problem with their country and they are rightfully saying" it was us who exported the democracy to the remotests lands of the earth now it is your turn to do something when we are in trouble". I wish was a fairy and would fly to their land and fix all the problems there and come back, on the way back stop there where you are to have some falafel with tehina and pack the rest to take back home![]()
To learn the Greek alphabet is demanding so was the Hebrew alphabet, it took me sometime to learn how to write copying out the dictionary, and trying to grasp the handwritten form which I had a friend write it down for me ba'hudu, and I just had them, it takes some time to get use to the very diverse form of the printed and the handwritten form of the letters, somehow I have managed to do that, I wish the handwritten form as well had a font on the pcs as well so one could type in that form as well, since it is cute![]()
Thank you so much for your very encouraging words shushiko,
Shalom![]()
I think you're onto something there with the hebrew writing
Here we say 'start up' whis is actually an English term -- it comes from
the concept of the computer IT age - which they refer to here as HI TECH
basically you have an idea that will make millions --![]()
I think it would be so cute to be able to write in script -- as you said it looks more appealing to the eye --
Yes I agree about the Greeks -- they are very handsom -- if I may say so....
there is a very nice amazing to say the least singer that you will love I am sure, his name is Mixalis Xatzigiannis -- he is absolutely amazing you will be totally hooked if you hear even one song --
try one of my many favourites -- Horis Anapnoi or an den koitazo esena or xeria psilia there are just so many -- these are actually the very rythmic songs he also has slow songs if you like - very beautiful too de fevgo and na eisai ekei
I really don't have a greek keyboard I've yet to master the alphabet they also have script and capitals -- but as with english they're able to type using the keyboard both capitals and script -- the way I write greek is called Greeklish it is Greek writing with latin/english letters -- anyway it's still good i suppose
Politics really I don't have time -- but I hear a little bit -- sorry I know there are problems all over the world inc. here and also where you are.... but also I think the media blows everything out of proportion -- and people sometimes panic or make wrong judgement about things --
I hope you are well -- your observation is very correct about hitkadmot advance and kadima -- forward --- with respect to Greek -- the word that you said was Yavan which means Greece -- Greek also comes from this word but it is said like this "Ye'va'nit" it is funny because for some reason every language when you take the country name and add "it" at the end it makes it into the language -- like for example "Paras and Parsit" and "Sfarad and Sfaradit! spain spanish -- and "Tzarfat and Tzarfatit" France and French -- so that might help you for the future
lovely to hear from you always sorry I didn't write in Hebrew much here today maybe next timeany questions always happy to answer
take care

Toda she kol she ata katavta , ata na'aim ( does that mean kind? )

Thank you for introducing all these wonderful Greek singers which I will try to search and listen to their accessible songs one by one. The other day, I was watching this movie called" My big fat Greek wedding" and the Greek music I heard was mesmerizing. The music was so good, I was thinking of what you wrote about their music when I was listening to the Greek song played at the end. I was not sure if the Middle Eastern music was an influence on the Greek music or the other way round had happened or the influence had been reciprocal. It was truly appealing to my soul.
So you agree with me about the Greek people being good looking. So are your youths, I have met them in some tourist destinations, what impressed me about them was their simplicity and their appreciation of life. I felt they enjoyed the tour more than many other people with least of luxury which I find amazing.
I understand what you say about the politics, ata chacham be;emet but as I feel so dedicated to this " peace plan for the Middle East", I feel I need to be around the politics, though in a truly non-political fashion
Boker tov ve shalom Sushiko
It's my pleasure always
Elinor Be'keff sometimes written keif but the "i" is really silent!
it means with pleasure and is said quite often -- more informal...
"ein baad ma" wish means also you're welcome but really more formal "don't mention it" -- I like be'keff it is more youthful
I'm glad you understood the Country-Language "it" Rule!! and since you mentioned about Teiman -- well here is anohter Rule -- as you know
Teiman is the country and if you add "it" suffix that will make Teimanit the language
as for Teimani -- well that refers to the person in this case Male who would be from Teiman -- so adding "i" as suffix gives you the male of that counry and adding "ia" suffix gives you the female from the country!!
another Example --
Tzarfat -- county -- Tzarfatit -- language -- Tzarfati -- Franch man
and lastly Tzarfatia -- Franch woman
ok that's it for today
Take care Eli NOR

Be'keif, my G-d, this word was use, the word " Keif" We use that, suppose when he enjoy something very much we say" Keif Karam" That means I was so much in the state of " Keif". or " Che keif dasht!" that means How pleasing it was.
See, we have much much in common as wellWell, When it comes to Teimani, Teimanit is the language the Yemanites use and Teimani is the Yemanite man while Teimania is the yemenite woman. That would make me a Parsia, not a Parsit, right?

Sorry for forgetting to bring to your attention a couple of things regarding
the last time you wrote me! I actually overlooked it! sorry so here it is:
You said "Toda she kol she ata katavta"
it would be more correct to say "Toda AL kol ma she katavta"
and also in this last post -- you said "Gam toda lecha million re'ga'im"
very sweet -- is it a literal translation from Parsit?? anyway Bechol Zot or Bechol Ofen -- "in any event" or for short "anyway"
it would be more proper/correct to say - [ze ihi'ye yoter nachon lomar]:
"Rav todot al ha'tgouva shelcha" many thanks for your response -- you may remember this word t'gouva -- although you don't need to thank me "bechol zot" because it's my pleasure and you're welcome -- so I would say
"ein ba'ad ma"
Elinor -- also one more thing - you said "ata na'im" and asked if it means kind?
Well it's sweet what you said thank you --but really it is meant moreso for a feeling "pleasant" "feels good" like for example if you slept on a comfortable pillow you could say "ze na'im" or "na'im me'od" you may also already know
that "na'im me'od" is a response that you say "nice to meat you" ok so as for describing a person/character of being pleasand -- well you could say:
Ata Maksim - from the word kes'sem which means magic so it would be really like saying you are magicall --- but it really is used quite often so say wonderful - amazing - sweet - kind -- etc... It's quite a stong word but it's used quite often as a show of gratitude -- I like to use a more gentle word as I have told you -- Metuka "sweet" but it's just a preferance and what you feel like saying -- whenever --
Also I have seen the movie that you mentioned a very long time ago -- when it just came out -- but sorry I don't remember the song/music I'm sure it was lovely -- although the singer that I refered you to is very modern and quite different from traditional Greek music -- also nice/pleasand you can say also about music that it's "na'im" - I thought the movie was funny also that the father used windex to cure anything!!![]()
ok Elinorlayla tov Yes of course you would be Parsia -- and Parsit would be the language -- yes our languages do have similarities here and there as does arabic as well -- lovely -- "Ei'ze keif" -- how pleasand or what fun!!
