Hebrew Word of the Day 1

That's right, you heard me correctly. This is my blog, which means that I can change its purpose any time I want to suit my needs.

I've been learning hebrew lately (the holy tongue, what better language to have as your second in command?) and am looking for good ways to really integrate it into my thinking. I reckon that finding a word (from a handy dandy Hebrew-English dictionary) and expressing it in different tenses with different conjugations should help!

So, here we go!








This word is a verb meaning "Close". If you want to express it as "to close" then you have to change it to have a "li" in front of it and a vav in between the gimel and the reish like so:








And now for conjugations (hopefully this process of typing this stuff into my Hebrew word processor, taking a screenshot of the word, and then zeroing in on the word itself so that i can subsequently put it in here isn't too arduous).

Well that's all for now. Hopefully I'll find an easier way of posting the hebrew on here than this cut and paste business.

Bye for now,
