Introduction
Study Instructions
Dear student,
This study kit uses a combined system of recorded and written
material. It is of utmost importance to use both – the text and the
recorded explanations, to achieve full understanding of the
material.
Listen to each track and read the corresponding material 2-3
times and only then move on to new material.
Track 1 contains an affirmation statement. Listen to it, or repeat
it by yourself several times a day in order to overcome possible
difficulties and barriers in studying Hebrew.
Start studying with the explanation of the general structure of
Hebrew verbs on track 2 of CD 1.
Throughout the book there are many types of exercises. It is
important that you complete these before moving on to the next
section.
After learning each verb tense, please do the exercises. These
will let you know how well you are doing, and whether you
need to review the material. Listen to the answers on CDs.

Introduction
Affirmation Statement
One of the best ways to accelerate your studying progress is to use
the technique of affirmations. The following affirmation sentence was
especially designed for this course. It has worked for so many of our
students and it will work for you!
“I enjoy studying Hebrew.
I understand and speak
Hebrew easily and fluently.
I progress rapidly in
Hebrew.”
.‫"אֲ נִ י אוֹהֵ ב לִ לְ מוֹד עִ בְ ִרית‬

ְ ‫אֲ נִ י מֵ בִ ין‬
".‫אֲ נִ י ִמ ְת ַקדֵ ם מַ הֵ ר בְ עִ בְ ִרית‬
Repeat your affirmation statement aloud 12 times a
day when relaxed.

Verbs - General Introduction
On the following page you will find the
"HEBREW VERB MENORAH".
As you know, in the Temple there was a golden Menorah built with seven
branches. It was made of one single piece of gold to represent the
unification of the different…
The Temple Menorah was captured by the Romans after the destruction
of the second Temple.
After the foundation of the State of Israel in 1948, the Menorah became
the symbol of Israel.
The Hebrew verbs are divided into seven basic groups. Each group is
called "BINYAN". (BINYAN = building, structure)
In this book the verb groups are arranged in the
shape of a Menorah. (See next page).
Important!!
Using this study kit you will learn the
Hebrew verbs in a unique and easy way, based on the sound
structure (music, or vowel combination) that distinguishes the
different groups. Once you have learned the music of a certain verb
group, you will automatically know how to use all the other verbs
having the same music. It will help you be on "auto-pilot" and
speak like an Israeli.
Let's take a look at the Verb Menorah.
 The 3 branches on the right side represent active verb groups
 The 3 branches on the left side represent passive verb groups
 The middle branch represents a group which is sometimes active
and sometimes passive.
At this stage please do not plunge into the details. Just absorb the
overall picture.

‫ְמנוֹ ַרת הַ ֹּפעַ ל‬
The Verb Menorah
This Menorah represents the fantastic order and music of the Hebrew
language. Notice the 3 right-hand branches, which represent active verbs,
while the 3 left-hand branches represent passive verbs.
The middle branch represents verbs, which can be both active and
passive. (Listen to CD for explanation and demonstration of the music)

The Verb Menorah represents the mystical bond between the Hebrew
language and the deeper layers of Judaism and Torah. According to
tradition there are certain Psalms that are spiritually beneficial when
read as they are written in the shape of Menorah. (For instance Psalm
67, see next page).

Introduction
Verb Groups – Binyanim
The Hebrew word for verb is ‫ ּפֹעַ ל‬-POAL, which is derived
from the root ‫( פעל‬PA’AL) - do, act.
Each verb group - Binyan is called by a name which incorporates the root
‫ פעל‬in the particular and unique way in which it is conjugated and
pronounced in the past tense - third person masculine.
Each Binyan has its unique music which is represented by the vowels
associated with the letters ‫פ ע ל‬.
The verbs associated with each Binyan have the same music as the name
of the Binyan and this will be helpful in remembering the verb
conjugation.
The first Binyan from the right on the Verb Menorah is named - ‫ ּפָ עַ ל‬and
it includes verbs such as:
‫ָׁשב‬
ַ ‫י‬
‫ָׁשמַ ע‬
‫עָ בַ ד‬
‫לָמַ ד‬
‫כָ תַ ב‬
YASHAV SHAMAH AVAD LAMAD KATAV
All of these verbs have the vowels A... A... in third person in
the past tense, which are the same sounds as in the name of
Binyan ‫ – ּפָ עַ ל‬PA’AL
The rest of the Binyanim are similarly named. They too are distinguished
by the vowels (music) in past tense - third person masculine.
Therefore, the verbs representing each Binyan in the Menorah have the
same "music" in past tense - third person masculine as the name of each
Binyan. (See chart on the next page).

Time Words
Before approaching the verbs, let's first get acquainted
with time words in order to make meaningful sentences using verbs.
In the present tense we usually use one of the following time words. The
time words will be used either at the beginning or at the end of a
sentence.
Example: ‫ׁשו‬
ָ ְ‫ אֲ נִ י לוֹמֵ ד עִ בְ ִרית עַ כ‬- I am studying Hebrew now.
‫עַ כשו‬

‫לפעמים‬

‫תמיד‬

‫יוֹם‬-‫* כל‬

‫* כל הַ יום‬
All day long
‫פַ עַ ם ֹלא‬-‫ַאף‬

‫בַ ב ֶקר‬
In the morning
‫בַ צ ֳה ַרים‬
At noon
‫הַ צהֳ ַרים‬-‫ַא ֲחרי‬
In the afternoon
‫בעֶ ֶרב‬
In the evening
‫בַ ַלילה‬
At night
Sunday; On Sunday
‫ ביום ראשון‬,‫יום ראשון‬
Monday; On Monday
‫ ביום שני‬,‫יום שני‬
Tuesday; On Tuesday
‫ ביום שלישי‬,‫יום שלישי‬
Wednesday; On Wednesday
Thursday; On Thursday
Friday; On Friday
‫ ביום רביעי‬,‫יום רביעי‬
‫ ביום ֲחמישי‬,‫יום חֲ מישי‬
‫ ביום ששי‬,‫יום ששי‬
‫ בשַ בת‬,‫ַשבת‬
Saturday; On Saturday
Saturday night; On Saturday Night
‫ במוצאי שַ בת‬,‫מוצאי שַ בת‬
* Please note the difference between ‫יו ֹם‬-‫( כָל‬every day) and ‫( כָל הַ ּיוֹם‬all
day long). The addition of letter ‫ ה‬causes the expression to focus on the
same day (all day long).

Helping Verbs + Infinitive
‫ ֵׁשם ּפֹעַ ל‬+ ‫ּפָ ֳעלֵי עֵ זֶר‬
Before we start learning an infinitive form of a certain verb group,
let’s first get acquainted with very useful helping verbs. These
helping verbs will help you to easily and quickly create sentences
with new verbs in the infinitive form.
As in English, it is impossible to use the infinitive form of the verb
without the preceding “helping” verbs.
For instance, you cannot say “I to eat soup now”.
The correct way is “I want to eat soup now”.
The helping verb "want" ‫ רוֹצֶ ה‬always comes in front of the infinitive
form of another verb. Let's first take a look at this verb in singular - male
and female.

Present Tense - Binyan Piel
1. Learn
conversion rules
from infinitive to
Present tense
The music of Binyan Piel in the present tense masculine is similar to its
infinitive form. L'…A…E…
‫לְ םַ םם‬
The letter ‫ ל‬of the infinitive is replaced with the letter
It becomes: M'…A…E…
‫ְמ‬
‫ְמ ַםםם‬
For feminine singular we add the ending ‫ת‬
For plural we add the ending ‫ ים‬for masculine and
‫ ות‬for feminine.
We call this group – “The simple group”, because in the present tense it
merely mimics the sound pattern of the infinitive form.
