HideListeners, how do you relax in the evening after a hard day? Do you read, watch TV, cook? Let us know in Hebrew!
Hi Daniel,
Thanks for posting your question!
This is a good case to see how English and Hebrew prepositions often don't match and require a little bit of intuition to understand.
In Hebrew, the verb "ืืฆืคืืช" (to watch) goes together with the preposition "ืึผ" ("be" or "ba").
There are not easy guidlines for this, and just for example, the close verb "to see" (ืืจืืืช) works with a different preposition - 'et' (ืืช).
I hope that helps,
Roi

Hi, why do we use โbaโ before television for โtheโ instead of โhaโ?
Hi Shelley,
That is correct :)

Is there a review audio? I meant the review where you type in the vocabulary. But thank you for fixing anything that needs to be fixed.
Hello Shelley,
We're fixing the Review audio as soon as possible.
We're sorry for the inconvenience.
Please stay tuned.
Sincerely,

I think you misunderstood. The lesson review doesn't specify whether the verb or noun is the expected answer for "shower". Please let the editors know to fix this confusion. Thank you.
Shalom, So in my sentences. I only left out the "tav" for the present tense of to wash and then the rest is correct for present and past? Thanks for your help.
Hi Shelley,
Sorry for all the trouble, let's try and make things clear :)
ืืงืืืช is "a shower", The verb is ืืืชืงืื, and therefore ืื ื ืืชืงืืืช ืืื ืืชืงืื and so on
ืืืืืื is "a Bath" and it's matching verb is ืืืชืจืืฅ (btw - also for the sea or a lake - everywhere that the whole body is covered completely by water) and therefore - ืื ื ืืชืจืืฆืช, ืืื ืืชืจืืฅ and so on.
Hope it helps :)

Please differentiate between the showers, noun and verb, in the review.
I shower/showered in the shower in the morning and bathe/bathed in the bathtub at night. ืื ื ืืชืงืืืช / ืืชืงืืื ืืืงืืืช ( I am basically guessing on the verbs-please help) ืืืืงืจ ืืื ื ืืจืืฆืช/ ืืชืจืืฆื ืืืืืืื ืืืืื
