Bow-care Tov בוקר טוב
Shhh, you are talking way too loud. I’m just having my first coffee קפה. Care to join me for a little Hebrew עברית while brewing your coffee קפה? (Couldn’t resist the pun.)
Today (hi-yum היום) I want to talk about how Hebrew עברית makes possessives. English makes a possessive like this: Mano’s coffee — with the apostrophe and the letter “s”. Sometimes we say “the coffee of Mano” although it’s a bit old-fashion. But hold on to the old-fashion way because this way will help you understand the Hebrew method of showing ownership.
To show ownership in Hebrew.
1. Use the old fashion English way of showing possession:
THE COFFEE OF MANO
2. Drop the “THE” and “OF”
COFFEE MANO
Note: If we leave it like this, Mano is in desperate trouble. He doesn’t own the coffee. Anyone could take it, and he could have a bad start to the day. Hebrew realizes this and has a solution. So watch the video here. It’s a clip from the UDEMY course “Learn Hebrew from the Bible”.
Hebrew is E-Vreet
