And this is what I like, a complex explanation of all tenses! I'm tired a bit of TH-cam teachers who give only partial information or focuse mostly on words as if they were afraid that their students' heads would explode from the overload of grammatical information. Thank you very much

Parabéns, professora, amei suas aulas. Você ensina melhor do que os professores daqui do Brasil; garanto que estou aprendendo muito com suas aulas. Continue ensinando, professora, pois está ajudando muito no meu aprendizado.
Você teve aula com todos os professores de hebraico do Brasil para afirmar tal coisa? Realmente concordo com você que ela ensina muito bem, uma das melhores professoras aqui do TH-cam. Mas não precisa diminuir seus compatriotas só pra elogiar um estrangeiro, você podia elogia-la, pois ela merece, mas sem precisar fazer esse papelão. Que feio!
Hello, thank you for buying the book, and also for your time on this channel. We are currently reviewing all our old videos. There is much more in the book that you bought than in those videos. So, you are not missing anything, on the contrary. The videos seemed to give the impression that there is not much more about that very binyan, which is of course the opposite. In the end, we launched the online verb course that teaches in 90 lessons ALL about Hebrew verbs, and in context, paired with everyday vicabulary and in depth exercises. Thanks again for your time to reach out. www.hebrew-verbs.com (there is currently a big summer promotion)
Hello Carole, thank you for writing. The rules are the ones described in this video: root, placement of vav and plural indicator. For the present tense, the Hebrew languages only knows male, female, singular and plural. If a group consists of at least 1 male person, the male conjugation is used. Please feel free to check out the playlists with conjugarted roots where you will also find a lot of paal videos.
Hi , nice video. I have a question why the verb אשאל ולא אשאול? It is also a regular Pal verb but the conjugation is different. Do you have a video for this? Thanks
great great Q. this verb only looks regular, but many paal verbs have an irregular future tense depending on their gizrah (video #2). in this case it s an ayin aleph verb group, meaning, the second letter if the root is an aleph. they are also called efAl verbs, therefore eshAl and not eshOl. this applies also to paal verbs with a second or third letter in the root that is ayin or khet. example:. אשלח . Watch video #2 for gizrah. I hope this helped.
Great video! I've a question, please: the verb lashir is in the paal group, right? Since in that case, at the infinite, you have a yod and at the present you don't have a vav I think it is irregular, right?
Yes, correct! This verb belongs to the gizra (verb type within a binyan) of עׂ״י (ayin-yud), meaning: the 2nd letter of the root is a yud. Have a great day! Thank you for writing.
So a vav at the end of a word doesn't count as a vav? At 9:06 there is clearly a vav at the end of תסגרו and יסגרו. Because earlier you said suffix deletes vav but there it is in the examples you pointed out.
I've just started learning Hebrew and have purchased your books today. Am I missing something fundamental with the present tense?... at 3:57 you only give the conjugations for he, she and they (m) and they (f). Why do we not have conjugations for I and Us and You and You All? Thanks in anticipation.
Hello Rob, thanks for writing. The fundamental rule of Hebrew's present tense is that there are only 4 forms: sgl, pl and masculine, feminine. So the conjugation of "I" falls either into the category of sgl feminine or sgl masculine. I hope it was a good explanation.
@@HebrewVerbs Thanks for getting back to me. Just to clarify... are you saying that the conjugation of " I " (Masc, sing) is the same as "He" ( masc, sing)? Also, the "you" (fem, sing) is the same as "she" (fem, sing)?
B.H. Nikkud is not a bad "invention", but like all inventions, they are not always as helpful as advertised. Personally, the Nikud is making me a lot more insecure than reading without it. Maybe it is just because I started reading without it, or maybe just because I had to read in order to get anywhere while in Israel, and real life (texts) rarely provide nikud.
ok. I understand. Now, this video is on the general rule. The root you mention does not follow the general rule, it belongs to the roots that start with yud and in all binyanim, their conjugations are a bit different. I have this root on my list of roots I want to make videos with full conjugations on. Soon you will see it here.
EXCELLENT QUESTION!! Please give me some days to answer with a full video. Hint the general rule is for verbs called "efol", some paal verbs look regular, but they conjugate the future according to rule for "efal verbs", for no specific reason. In the 90-day verb couse we also learn these kind of specialties: www.hebrew-verbs.com
Hello. In Modern Hebrew there are no nikud, hence there is no difference ;-) ... the only reason you see them is to show how to pronounce them, and both of these variations "do the job". The nikud placement is very debated in Modern Hebrew and even for Biblical Hebrew, yes I guess there are rules, why you use one or the other, but both forms you mention exist. Sometimes, it is a question of the nikud system that was in place when that text was written. This brings us back to Modern Hebrew: none is in place :-)) Personally, I would rather teach Hebrew without nikud, but I tried that many times and there is no way to get the Hebrew student community cooperate. They want nikud or nothing.
Hello Alicja, nikud is important in Biblical Hebrew, for Ivrit it is not at all. Learning it at the same time might be confusing, but I am sure you know what you are doing. There are many different ways of putting nikud under words and the Biblical nikud are oftentimes not the same as in Ivrit. The most important is that the student later can read the news without ANY nikud. In Israel, they are only used in the first grade, then the students are reading without as they are not part of daily life and this is important to know that you have to let go of the nikud at a certain time if you want to read Israeli material. My approach is to help the students understand the pronunciation as a mere help at the moment, like in first grade. I am not teaching nikud as they do in Biblical Hebrew and I do not check on my students what kind of nikud they put under the words as long as they pronounce and spell it correctly, it is an additional help on the way, nothing else. The aim is to live without nikud. Most students who first learned Biblical Hebrew have problems letting go of nikud. The approach of teaching Biblical Hebrew is completely opposite to Ivrit.
I appreciate the effort to make things more clear. It does that exceptionally well. Thank you very much.
Your explanations are so easy to comprehend. You're a good teacher, thanks for sharing all these knowledge here on TH-cam.

There is a typo at 3:55 - Female Plural needs a sheva instead of a segol under the letter ג
Yep thanks. You have a great exe. 👌 Since modern Hebrew is basically without nikud,. most people did not even see it (like myself 😇 ).
תודה רבה ❤🇮🇱❤

I don't understand when the yud is removed in future tense conjugations of a verb
Hello, thanks for reaching out to me. I am not sure to which yud you refer in this video. Can you giv me an example?
@@HebrewVerbs For example, there is a yud in the root of (לרדת (ירד, but the yud disappears when it is conjugated in the future tense (ארד, תרד)
ok. I understand. Now, this video is on the general rule.

hey! i have a question, why is the future tense not consistent even though there are no guttural letters? like אסגור (with vav) but אלמד (without vav)

Theres a segol instead of shwa in סוגרות
Hello Alicja, Thank you for writing. Did you learn Biblical Hebrew until now?
@@HebrewVerbs I'm trying to learn both Modern and Biblical Hebrew. The typo is at 3:55

@@HebrewVerbs Okay but סוגרות is pronounced “sogrot,” not “sogerot,” so in this case segol and shva are not interchangeable.
