7 Introduction Since Hebrew is written in the Hebrew alphabet, to read Hebrew you need to associate the sounds with a different system of symbols than the Latin alphabet. A complete listing of the Hebrew alphabet can be found starting on page 4. This is for your information only: you will not need the list to be able to read Hebrew since all of the instruction is on the audio. In Hebrew you read from right to left, the opposite of English. Starting with the Hebrew reading lessons on page 10, you will be reading from right to left. In Modern Hebrew, the major vowel sounds are: ah, eh, ee, o, and oo. Some vowels are represented by more than one sign. The reason for this is that in ancient times there were more vowel sounds than there are today and the various forms of transcription have been maintained even when there is no sound difference. There is also a punctuation vowel, called schva, which is sometimes silent. There are twenty-two consonants in the Hebrew alphabet, written with thirty-one letters. As in the case of the vowels, there are some letters which in Modern Hebrew sound alike, but which originally were different sounds. This is especially true in the case of some guttural sounds which are no longer pronounced gutturally in Modern Hebrew.

8 There are two letters which are silent and serve as vowel carriers. There are two letters which have a different sound when a dot is added. There are five letters which have two forms: one form when written at the beginning or middle of the word, and another form when written at the end of the word. Having different letters for the same sound may cause difficulties in spelling, but not in reading. Modern Hebrew script does not normally include vowels and consonant dots. These are only included in the Bible, prayer books, poetry, and children s literature; they are otherwise used only when it is necessary to avoid ambiguities of meaning. As of the second grade in elementary school, Israelis are able to read without vowels, by guessing the correct pronunciation. Most everyday reading material in Israel, such as newspapers and books, are written in ktiv male which is a set of rules for writing Hebrew without vowel markers. In ktiv male consonant dots and vowel diacritics are not written and some vowels are indicated by the addition of the vav and yud. ktiv male has been adopted by the Academy of the Hebrew Language. In the Reading Lessons, we have not included the dots called dagesh in cases where these dots do not change the pronunciation. There are twenty Reading Lessons. In Lessons One through Twelve you ll be reading words you know. The first two lessons will be shown twice, first in ktiv male and then with full vowels. However to transition you to reading 2

9 less as a beginner, Lessons Three through Twelve will be shown only in ktiv male. There are a few words which may be new to you in these lessons. These words will be shown with vowel markers and then followed by the meaning of the word in parenthesis. Use your knowledge of Hebrew and the context of the lesson to help you read without the vowel markers. In Lessons Thirteen through Twenty, you ll be reading new useful vocabulary. Because you will most likely not recognize the words you are reading, these lessons will be shown twice: first with full vowels and then in ktiv male. These lessons are printed in the Hebrew square type. You will note that there are no capital letters in Hebrew and western style punctuation is used. The recorded portion of the reading materials for Hebrew 3 will be found at the end of the program. You can do the Readings when it is most convenient for you, either with the lessons, or entirely after completing the full 30 lessons. Full instructions on how to proceed are in the recording. 3
