/r/hebrew
English has some delightfully kid-friendly ways to insult. You can tell someone (best to a young teenager) "Beat it, twerp", "buzz off, dweeb", "scram, dummy" and the list goes on.
In Hebrew, I'm currently limited to calling someone a בן זונה and it doesn't match my mild annoyance.
I'm looking for some lukewarm insults for low stakes scenarios
Thanks 🙏
I've been using this site called Pealim to learn Hebrew but whenever I come across a verb like אָמַר, there's always a bunch of different forms of the same word for different tense and genders, which isn't too much of an issue except some of these i come across are apparently not used very often. What tensed and gendered versions of words should I try to learn and what should I discard? Or how can I remember these tense easier?
What is ba and why not la?
So I have request from someone who can write and speak Hebrew. I am looking to get a tattoo done that says the one who left it all behind in Hebrew script. I know google translate is a thing but I was wondering if someone from this group can type that in Hebrew script for me. Please and thank you
How would one refer to the fall holidays collectively, ie. Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, et al. Is there a Hebrew equivalent of "holiday season" or another term entirely?
I was watching a video and saw a word with a specific meaning I previously knew, but when I translated the context I saw a different meaning. So are there any tools that explain the usage of words and the preferable words you (Israeli) people like to use rather than other words that carry same meaning .
As said in the title, pls drop the best grammar resource for modern hebrew. I couldn't find anything helpful on the internet :( and hopefully a free one pls lol
What kind of mistakes do native speakers think Hebrew learners make frequently? Anything besides number and gender of nouns, adj.s and verbs?
For me, as a beginner, these are a litte bit confusing:
- Kaf/Qof for /k/
- Kaf/Khet for /kh/
- Samekh/Shin for /s/
- Tet/Tav for /t/
I'm very new to the language, but I wanted to know if there were some (platonic) terms of endearment I could use toward my friends. Thanks!

What are the rules for when ל is pronounced la or le and ב is pronounced ba or be? I can’t find them online ☹️ Thank you
