Matai means “When”, and you can use it in phrases like Matai ata khozer? matai at khozeret? which means “when are you coming back?"
Mi-matai means “Since when” and you can use it in phrases like Mimatai ata melamed? Mi-matai at melamedet? meaning “since when are you teaching?")
Lastly, Ad Matai means “Until when” and you use it in phrases like Ad matai atem ptukhim? which means ”until when are you open?" - at a shop.
