Hi Paola,

Thanks for posting your question and welcome to HebrewPod101😄 We hope you've enjoyed the lesson :)

There is no place to enter your answer, this lesson is only meant as a practice for you to test yourself and see if you can get the most important information from the conversation.

The audio works fine on my end... maybe you had some kind of local issue on your device... I would check that the volume is up and that the speakers aren't muted... otherwise, it should word :)

I hope that helps :)

Enjoy learning Hebrew!

Best,

שלום, זה השיעור הראשון שלי. לא הבנתי אם עליי לענות על השאלה "איזו דירה הם הולכים לראות?" אם כן, לענות בקול ואיפה? אני שומעת click אך אחר כך לא קרה כלום. אני לא כל כך בקיאה במחשב....אנא תסלחו לי פאולה מיסורי

Hi Aaron,

Thanks for posting!

Both forms of this word are valid in Hebrew and both are used for the same purpose. The form "zu" appears in ancient Hebrew texts and it was in common use among European Jewish populations, and therefore considered correct.

Yet, the form "zo" is preferred nowadays and it is the one that is recommended by the Hebrew academy as it appears more frequent both in texts and in speech throughout the history of the Hebrew language.

I hope that helps :)

Best,

I don't really understand the pronunciation זוּ (zoo) and זו (zo)? Can either pronunciation be used?

Hi שירה,

Thanks for posting this important clarification! you're correct 👍👍

Good work on your phrase! almost everything is correct, note a few little mistakes in this order: plural/singular, word-order, missing article.

(marked in **):

אני צריכה לעבור *דירה* אבל יש לי כלב, אז *קשה יותר* למצוא משהו מושלם. אני גם רוצה עוד כלב וגינה. אולי זה הזמן *המושלם* לקנות בית במקום להשכיר דירה!

Keep up the great work, and let us know if you have any questions! 😄

Yours,

Jacob - "לגבי" meas "about" so it's a preposition, not a verb. You are not missing anything!

Hi Havah Hope and Oscar Perez,

Thanks for commenting! 😄

@Havah - I see nothing wrong in the lesson. you are right, but there's no such mistake in the lesson... די קטן can be translated into "pretty small" (when pretty has no aesthetic meaning)

@Oscar - "She" acts as "shall we" in this case. this is another common use of this prefix.

Happy to help,

Yours,

"שנלך לראות אותה"

This part was slightly confusing. I thought that the shin meant "that" which wouldn't translate to anything quite resembling "should." Could someone explain please.

די Does not mean pretty. It meas enough.

In the sentence: הארון לא קטן מידי? It means: Isn't the closet too small?

Hi, this is great ut I need to l arn all the words!!

For example; they say; תבגי I think, but I am not sure which verb he is using. בגבי is that לאבור to come ?? I'll check the English transcript!!?
