Ready for another duo in Hebrew that has entirely different meaning based on the syllable that is stressed?

To say, they are DIVORCED, We use the Hebrew word /g-roo-'sheem/, in Hebrew with no Nikkud and we stress the last syllable in that word.

To say that something is super inexpensive, it barely costs anything, it costs "pennies", native Israelis say /g-'roo-shem/, stressing the second to last syllable.

Now, this is not just a random word. It is the plural form of the/g-'roosh, old "penny" currency that was used in the region.

If you're new around here, welcome! And make sure to hop on board and start using my game-changing phonetic system (PSP) that allows you to read, write, and say every word in Hebrew correctly, like a true Israeli.

Relationship statuses in Hebrew!

Whether you're updating friends, filling out forms, or simply curious about how to navigate social situations in Israel, understanding how to convey your relationship status in Hebrew is essential. From single to married, divorced to widowed, and everything in between, Hebrew offers a range of expressions that reflect life's different stages.

We'll start with the basics, covering how to say "single" and move through to more complex statuses, such as "married", and for those whose relationships have ended, we'll cover "separated", "divorced", and "widowed".

And as always, if you want to become fluent in Hebrew, these bite sized daily lessons are here to expand and practice all your conversational skills acquired in my conversational course - Practically Speaking Hebrew.
