Shalom everybody!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the last week of learning Hebrew for this project. I have come so far from knowing almost nothing to knowing quite a bit. Now, I am nowhere near fluent. My main problem is that I am never confident when learning languages.  In French class, I know how to say many things.  I just do not have the bravery to actually talk to people in French.  This is the same thing with Hebrew.  But I will give it a try.

 

Pictures (Just in case you missed it):

1. Ball- "Cadoor"
2. Pen/Pencil- "Et"
3. Bread- "Lechem"
4. Matzah- "Matzah"
5. Milk- "Halav"

P.S.  It is really hard to copy and paste Hebrew letters into a blog, because Hebrew is read from right to left.  These are just the phonetic pronunciations of the Hebrew.

So, I completed lesson two on Rosetta Stone.  I learned some more basic conversational skills.  I learned how to say “hello”, “what are you doing”, and “What is that”.

 

 Here are the greetings:

1. Hello!- "Shalom"
2. What are you doing?- "Ma at osah"
3. What is that?- "Ma zeh"

I am still studying from my book.  I have also created flashcards, which I study with my friend Maxx.  I have had trouble, because I kept mixing up the final nun with the vav.

So I am going to say goodbye to all. I wish all of you the best, so I hope that you will return the favor.  I will be doing my TED talk at Thursday at 10:10.  Wish me luck.  SHALOM!
