Hi Skylar, You can try this technique: Start by replacing the Resh in "Orr" with a Gimel sound [g]. The [o] vowel sound in Orr, places the back part of the tongue high in the mouth, so transitioning to Gimel should feel relatively easy and natural, because gimel is produced by blocking airflow with the back part of the tongue touching the soft palate. Say: Og, Og, Og, a few times while focusing on the sensation in your mouth and what your tongue is doing and touching. Then, try changing the Gimel to a sound that is a mixture of Gimel [g] with Nun [n], like when naturally pronouncing words like: bank, mango, ping pong. This is a velar nasal sound, which in ipa is: [ŋ]. so now try saying a few times: Oŋ, Oŋ, Oŋ (it should sound like the 'pong' in ping pong). Lastly, try to lower the back part of your tongue just a tiny bit, so it no longer touches the soft palate, but still blocks some airflow. This should create the Resh sound. You can try dragging out the [ŋ] like this: Oŋŋŋŋŋŋŋŋ and gradually shift to the Resh. I hope this helps!

@@JLP4444 I'm so happy to hear this helped you!

@@StoryoftheMaldives Yiddish, German... Right.

Hi Ruth, thank you for your thoughtful comment! You’re absolutely right-the Resh does resemble the French “r” since both are produced in the back part of the oral cavity. However, they’re not exactly the same. The Hebrew Resh is softer, with less air blocking and no friction. To produce it, the back part of your tongue rises toward the uvula but doesn’t touch it. This makes the Resh so soft that it can sometimes sound almost like a vowel, especially at the end of a syllable or word. You’re also correct that it shouldn’t sound like a Chet, which involves friction and contact between the tongue and the soft palate. Resh at the end of a word can indeed be tricky for learners of the Israeli accent. A helpful tip is to replace it with a vowel at first (e.g., say “ashe, ashe, ashe”), then gradually introduce a slight rise of the back of your tongue toward the uvula to form “asher.” The difference between the two should be subtle.

@@UlpaNoyaNoyaEinhorn This is so very helpful. Thank you so much for this clarification!

@@RuthHenriquez1 You're very welcome!

Hey Reylen! How exciting to hear from you! I'm looking forward to talking to you more about Hebrew lessons! Please contact me on WhatsApp at 0545883855 or through the website: www.ulpanoya.com/ Have a wonderful weekend! 😘

Thank you❣

😄נכון😄 מטורפת וגאונית! תודה רבה, אני ממש שמחה לשמוע!

@@JuttaHebrew-f8c So glad to hear! 😊

@@OkwudilichukwuIlokanazu exactly like you wrote it, and with the stress on the "shu". - That's the proper/correct Hebrew. The "Israeli" way is: YEoSHUA. Where the H consonant is gone, and only it's vowel is pronounced.

@@UlpaNoyaNoyaEinhorn What of the name YAHOSHUA?

@@OkwudilichukwuIlokanazu There is no such name. Only YEHOSHUA.

@@rosalindhershkovitz4390 איזה כיף, אני ממש שמחה לשמוע! ❤️

@@davidabramowitz4449 I apologise, unfortunately there's no way to do that now. I'll keep it in mind for future conversations.

@@PrincevincentiusEL Basically you can, with an apostrophe (אוג', ספט', אוק', נוב') And in context, it would be normally understood.

@@rosalindhershkovitz4390 איזה יופי! אני ממש שמחה לשמוע 😊

@@UlpaNoyaNoyaEinhorn! אמשיך איתך. תמיד רציתי להוציא את המבטא שלי . אולי סוף סוף.

@@rosalindhershkovitz4390 יאללה, מוזמנת ליצור קשר ולהתחיל לפתח מבטא ישראלי כמו שצריך ❤️😊

😄

😄😄😄 תודה רבה איילת!

I absolutely LOVE it when natives see my videos and have such revelations 😄 And I agree. It's totally amazing how you grow up with the language, and then you just KNOW what to do with it, without thinking about it, without necessarily understanding it, or being aware of why you speak it the way you do. Thank you for your comment ❤

The closest thing I could think of is קפצונים which are caps for a cap gun. But there's no קפצונות. It is a masculine noun. Here's what they look like in Israel: fixt.co.il/product/knuckles/ www.hidabroot.org/article/1179117

@@UlpaNoyaNoyaEinhorn Thanks. 😊 Beseder. Hahaaa. I think he was joking about my wanting to fight back at loud cars THANK YOU i think i understand ❤️🤣🙏🏻 So the "neem" suffix is masculine, and the "not" ending feminine? He was calling me a caps gun cap. So it's a piece of pseudo- ammunition for a toy gun, basically. 🤣🙏🏻

​​​@@UlpaNoyaNoyaEinhornThe video he said it in was about triggers in addiction or in limerence, coming across romantic objects, are + triggers, of wanting to approach, and in CPTSD those triggers are -, to avoid. The approach-avoidance repetition compulsion in Borderline. I'm his capsoneem. 😊 I appreciate this more than you know. ❤❤❤❤ Beautiful Noya.

@@trustinsynchronicity yes, the suffix "im" is for masculine plural and "ot" for feminine plural :)

@@trustinsynchronicity maybe you could attach the link with a time stamp where he says that word. That would make it much easier for me to tell what he said.

Does Hebrew have English versions of written words? For example, I have seen "Beseder" in random places around the internet. (Ok, fine).

Thank you for your beautiful videos and punctuality in comments ❤️🙏🏻😊

@@coyotech55 Hey coyotech55! It's great that you're making sure to pronounce every consonant! This is already an important step towards an authentic Israeli accent. I just want to clarify something regarding vowels. English actually does use pure vowels quite a lot. (Examples of pure vowels in English words: cup, father, shoot, soft, bed, cat...). It has more pure vowels than diphthongs, but compared to Hebrew, its use of diphthongs is much more extensive. The thing is (and I understand why this might be confusing) that in the language I developed to explain to my students how to pronounce Hebrew sounds, I use the word "pure" in a broader sense than its definition in professional linguistics. In the latter, pure means: Not a diphthong. But when I talk about the purity of a sound in Hebrew, I don't only mean that it’s not a diphthong, but that it's a very defined and distinct sound. Clean and simple. Unlike pure sounds in English, which can sound like a combination of two vowels, even if they are not diphthongs. For example, in the word cat, it sounds like a combination of e and a; something that would never happen in Hebrew. Or for instance, in the name: McDonald's, the vowel in the syllable "Do" sounds like a combination of a pure o and an a, which gives us a sound similar to "daw." In Hebrew/Israel, we pronounce it only with a pure o. (Like in the word "טוב" (tov) - "good", in Hebrew), and it's not that the vowel in McDonald's in English is a diphthong, but in my teaching language, it's also not pure, but a combination of two basic vowel sounds that together create a more complex vowel sound. A sound that does not exist in Hebrew. I hope this helps :) Keep up the good work you're doing!

Using a euphemism to say "Kill all the Jews in Israel" is nothing but hypocrisy, racism and cowardice. Please keep your antisemitic views away from this channel and its followers. Thank you. 🇮🇱

Using power to colonize another country, commit genocides through all times until now, and don't forget bombing children is nothing but arrogance, barbarity, racism also Palestinians are descended from the Semitic race and thank you🍉

@@UlpaNoyaNoyaEinhorn Thank you!!! It's like Germans who wanted everything Juden Rein.. it's a rallying cry for extermination. But Palestine does need to be free......... Of HAMAS!!
