It's sh(e)nayim (M) and not sh(e)tayim (F) as you did not pronounce shelosh (M) as sheloshah, (F) and the rest of the numbers are also in their male form.
I’m an Arabic speaker and it’s great to learn our sister language Hebrew. Let me tell you, so far it’s a breeze 🤣 Cognates left, right, and center! Keep em comin’!
@@JerryStout-zq8tl Nice! Keep it up! Reading the Qur’an is also a great way to learn Arabic 😁 And learn about the second largest faith in the world at the same time. Peace.
Have a notice there are two ways to say the numbers 1-19 in Hebrew, a way to count one female or more (only females) and a way to count one male or a group of people which has some men and women or men only. This lesson above taught you the female way to say all the numbers 1-10, except of 1 (which was the way to count one male). The number zero has no gender. If you want to just count from one to ten, use the female gender of the numbers (although you can use the male 1 if you want) Here is the right way to count (read all the vowels as they are complete syllable) : male \ female: 1 Echad אחד \ Achat אחת 2 Shnaim שניים \ Shtaim שתיים 3 Shlosha שלושה \ Shalosh שלוש 4 Arba'a ארבעה \ Arba ארבע 5 Hamisha חמישה \ Hamesh חמש 6 Shisha שישה \ Shesh שש 7 Shiv'a שבעה \ Sheva שבע 8 Shmona שמונה \ Shmone שמונה 9 Tish'a תשעה \ Tesha תשע 10 Asara עשרה \ Eser עשר 11 Echad Asar אחד עשר \ Echad Esre אחת עשרה 12 Shneim Asar שניים עשר \ Shteim Esre שתיים עשרה 13 Shlosha Asar שלושה עשר \ Shlosh Esre שלוש עשרה 14 Arba'a Asar ארבעה עשר \ Arba Esre ארבע עשרה 15 Hamisha Asar חמישה עשר \ Hamesh Esre חמש עשרה 16 Shisha Asar שישה עשר \ Shesh Esre שש עשרה 17 Shiv'a Asar שבעה עשר \ Shva Esre שבע עשרה 18 Shmona Asar שמונה עשר \ Smone Esre שמונה עשרה 19 Tish'a Asar תשעה עשר \ Tsha Esre תשע עשרה If you want to say (for example) 25 you would say : esrim ve'hamesh (twenty and five - female) or: esrim ve'hamisha (male) *the point is the "ve" after the small number. . The number "1" is said after the noun (in both cases- male and female), the rest are before the noun. The number "2" becomes "shnei" (for males) and "shtei" (for females) when it's a counting number. Also have a notice to the gender of the thing you want to count. Every noun in Hebrew has a gender. For example: Day(yom) is a male (yom echad, shnei yamim- יום אחד, שני ימים) and "picture" is a female (tmuna achat, shtei tmunot - תמונה אחת, שתיי תמונות) The plural way to say nouns is to add "im" or "ot" in the end of the word. Basically, "im" is for male plural nouns and "ot" is for female plural nouns, but there are so many exceptions, it's almost invaluable. There so many things I didn't write about, so if you want me to explain more, my twitter account (the only active one I use at) is :@NoaZonis(the nickname is "ThePoem") good luck with your learning :)

Ana you are the best world teacher, with your grace and elegance and perfect pronunciation!!! Many thanks for your forst ivrit in my hebrew. Regards from Polin. Tamara
I'm here because my Krav Maga instructor makes us count off in Hebrew when doing push ups. (Which sounds completely badass, btw.) Thanks for the helpful video!
The funny part that nine in Hebrew is תשע (tesha) but in Arabic is تسعة (tisaa) the difference is that here in Hebrew it's /sh/ sound while in Arabic it's /s/ sound but for ten in Hebrew it's עשר (eser) while in Arabic it's عشرة (ashara) so here again the same difference but this time in Arabic it's /sh/ sound while in Hebrew it's /s/ sound. I really don't know why these two languages are fighting each other with these sounds lol:)
+Asaambjab99 Brzey Hi Asaambjab99 Brzey, Thank you for posting! You're right, Hebrew and Arabic are both Semitic languages, and are similar both in their vocabulary and in their syntax. This is why Hebrew learning is much easier for Arabic speakers ;) Keep enjoying Hebrew! Sincerely, Yaara Team HebrewPod101.com
No language is any older than any other language. All ethnic groups have been using languages since the dawn of time. In the case of Arabic and Hebrew, they belong to the same language family - Semitic - just as English and, say, Russian or Spanish or Hindi belong to the Indo-European language family. This means that if you travel backward in time, you eventually come to a point where Semitic-speaking peoples were all one, speaking the same language. This is the same with all languages. It thus makes no sense to say that any language is older than any other language. Sometimes the name of a language is changed, as for instance when one language (such as Latin) develops differently in different geographical areas, into variations like French, Italian, Spanish, etc. But each of these daughter-languages can trace its history back just as far as any other. The only languages that can be said to be "older" in their present forms are dead languages, like Latin and Sanskrit. But actually Latin and Sanskrit are still "alive" in the guise of their daughter-languages. If by "Arabic" you mean Classical Arabic, as found in the Qur'an, then that is similarly a dead language, as no-one speaks it today as their native language, but it has given birth to a large number of living Arabic languages, stretching from Morocco to Oman. Modern Hebrew is descended from Biblical Hebrew, as found in the Torah and Talmud, which are, of course, older than the Qur'an. But that does not makes Hebrew older than Arabic, does it?
No, classical Arabic is what is officially spoken in all arab countries, from television to offical and proffessional meetings to schools and everything.
Very interesting and beautiful language and similar to Tigrinya language. I want to learn Hebrew. 1 hade 2. Klte 3. Seleste 4. Arba'te 5. Hamushte 6.shdushte 7. Shewate 8. Shemonte 9. Tishiate 19. Aserte
Israel is one of my favorite nations of the Middle East because of it's cuisine's, pop culture, and military vehicles (IDF). My mother once lived with 3 Jewish families from Israel.
habibiahk "sechs" in german pronunciation is not that close as the Polish "sześć". Listen to German pronunciation then Polish, then Hebrew. Polish "six" is almost identical as Hebrew "six".
Aaron Bogatch i do speak some German :) but not Polish. I listened to the Polish version and the point is, isn't it cool that six, sechs, sześć, and שֵׁשׁ all have the same "s/sh" sound to start and end with?
Also, Arabic for "six" is "sitta." Moreover, the numbers for both six and seven start with an s or sh sound in both Hebrew and Arabic as well as most European languages. Even in Hindi and Bengali seven is "saat" and "shaat" (compare with French "sept") while six is only slightly different with che/choy. Either the Indo-European and Semitic languages have influenced one another, or these numbers go waaaay back to some time at the dawn of history when both language groups were the same.
It still surprises me, just how some people have no idea about Rocelangue Method (google it), despite the fact that a lot of people learn how to speak fluently because of this method. Thanks to my cooworker who told me about Rocelangue Method, I've learn how to speak foreign language in quick and easy way.
Keda_P I'm so confused. I have a list of masculine and feminine numbers, and when she counts... Half of them are masculine and the other half are randomly feminine.
Keda_P So why isn't there two versions (zahar v'Nekeva) of counting in the video? She says one is אחד which is masculine... but then she says two is שתיים which is feminine... and she jumps back and fourth between feminine and masculine. When neutrally counting, do you use masculine form or feminine form?
Jay Bartgis maybe because 1 is God (male). 2 tablets (female), just kidding. I dont know. She counts correctly. This is how you count. Default for 1 is male. Default for 2 is female and so on.
Is this the most common way to count from 1 to 10 ? When a kid is asked at school to count, does he use this version ? Or does he have to say both masculine and feminine and move on to the next number?
Shalom palpal2011, Thank you for posting. As you know, in Hebrew, nouns, verbs, adjective, adverbs, and even the counting all have a masculine and a feminine version. For counting female nouns we use female version of counting and for masculine nouns - masculine counting. What you learned is correct. for general counting we usually use the female version. but both are OK. Happy Hebrew learning, Lenny Team HebrewPod101.com
Shlam Elekhon I speak similar language called Aramaic which is sister language of Hebrew and Arabic 1. Kha 2. Tre 3. Tlatha 4. Arba 5. Khamsha 6. Ishta 7. Shawa 8. Tmanya 9. Icha 10. Esra
שגיאה. עברית במקור בשל השפה הכנענית.השפה הארמית הייתה אחד מהשפות השמיות כגון כנעני. במאה החמישית לפני הספירה החלה עברית למות לאט, ולקחה את השפה הארמית להחליף אותם באיטיות עד מותה כשפת עברית וכתובות ספרות.
Error. Hebrew in origin due to the Canaanite language. The Aramaic language was one of the Semitic languages such as Canaanite. In the fifth century BC began Hebrew die slowly, and took the Aramaic language replace them slowly until she died as a Hebrew language and literature addresses.
האמת שעברית לא הייתה שפה עד כדי כך מתה היא פשוט הייתה שפה שלא דברו בה ביום יום אבל יהודים בארץ ישראל דברו בעברית כשהם נפגשו וכמובן שבשעות התפילה (אם כי השפה הייתה די מצומצמת מפני שחסרו לה מילים חדשות) אך ככל הידוע לי ארמית היא שפה שמבוססת על עברית
You forgot to tell the difference between masculine and feminine: MASCULINE: Efes 0 אפס Echad 1 אחד Shnaim 2 שניים* Shlosha 3 שלושה Arba'a 4 ארבעה Chamisha 5 חמישה Shisha 6 שישה Shiv'a 7 שבעה Shmona 8 שמונה Tish'a 9 תשעה *If you want to say "two ___" you would use 2 in a differente way Shnei Yeladim שני ילדים Which means two boys FEMININE: Efes 0 אפס Achat 1 אחת Shtaim 2 שתיים* Shalosh 3 שלוש Arba 4 ארבע Chamesh 5 חמש Shesh 6 שש Sheva 7 שבע Shmone 8 שמונה Tesha 9 תשע *If you want to say "two ___" you would use 2 in a differente way Shtei Yeladot שתי ילדות Which means two girls.
