Hebrew Lesson Number 30:
Going to the Movies
What could be better than learning Hebrew online with Eran, Liat & Jonathan…especially if we get to go to the movies! I wonder what movie we’ll see…and who we might run into there…
Introduction to Lesson 30:
Going to the Movies
Learn Hebrew Pod - Lesson No. 30
There’s nothing quite like going to the movies. Can’t you just smell the popcorn? Feel the bottom of your shoes stick just a little to the floor of the theater? The anticipation as the theater gets dark . . . and away we go!
We’ve arrived at Learn Hebrew Pod shiur mispar shloshim, and we’ve sure come a long way since the early shiurim! As in shiur chamesh, in today’s lesson, Eran and Liat again make a plan to go to the movies together.This time, though, they’ll be accompanied by lots of their young family members--Liat’s nieces and Eran’s nephew and little sister. It sounds like the new Walt Disney movie will be the perfect choice!
As Eran and Liat let us in on the importance of family in their lives and their love of the cinema, we’ll get to learn lots of new Hebrew vocabulary related to going to the movies. You’ll certainly be ready to visit the theater in Israel . . . you’ll know the words for everything from tickets to popcorn to subtitles. We’ll also deepen our understanding of the unique Hebrew word “et” and learn one of the most popular slang expressions in modern Hebrew.

Some Grammar from This Lesson:
The Special Hebrew Preposition - ‘Et’
Jonathan: toda Eran ve-liat. Our main grammar discussion for today is understanding and familiarizing ourselves further with the special and highly important Hebrew word, 'et'. Let's first repeat some of the things that we've already learned and know about this unique word:
Liat: ani ochelet et ha-agvani-ya ha-aduma.
Jonathan: The word “et” is a very important word in Hebrew, and has no equivalent in the English language. In Hebrew, it appears between a verb and an object. It will appear, only when the object is a particular, that is, when we are talking about specific known object.
In Liat's sentence, because she is referring to a specific vegetable, a specific red tomato, she has to put the word “et” between the verb and the noun, between ochelet and ha-agvaniya… “ani ochelet et ha-agvani-ya.” It can be described as a connecting word between a verb and a particular object to which it refers.
Let’s listen to some examples of sentences in which we will use the word “et” compared to some, in which we will not:
Eran: ani o-hev tapuchim – I like apples.
ani rozze et ha-tapu-ach ha-matok – I want the sweet apple.
Liat: ani makira harbe yeladim – I know many kids.
ani makira et Ya-el ve-et-Ronit ve-et-Michal – I know Yael, and Ronit and Michal.
Eran: ani o-hev chagim – I love holidays.
Liat: ani o-hevet et Rosh Ha-Shana – I love Rosh Hashana.
אני רוצה את התפוח המתוק
Jonathan: Today, we will learn two additional things about this special Hebrew preposition, the 'et' word - When to use it and how its declensions work.
