Thank you. I was wondering if I could substitute "mdai rah" for " Chevel" and apparently I cannot! Thanks

for answering a question not asked.

Hi Shelley,

Just one tiny thing - too bad is simply - חבל in Hebrew (Chaval)

:wink:

So interesting. I have to look back and find the way I did "food of the sea and see what the difference is. I know that it was used in one of the lessons. The other "What is" is also interesting. I don't think that I have come across it before and havn't seen it in the lessons as yet. Do you know if you have a lesson on it and where can I find it? Thank you, Roi.

Hi Shelley,

"Sea food" is translated into "Sea fruits" in Hebrew (Don't ask me why...:sweat_smile:) - so פירות ים is the proper translation.

about "מהי" - since we are asking about a feminine object (מנה) we can upgrade our "What" into "What is"... already including the gender. for a masculine object we can ask "מהו" and for plurals accordingly - "מהן" / "מהם" (what are...)

Roi, in the sentence "what appetizers does the restaurant have, does your last word change the meaning of the sentence? to What appetizers does the restaurant recommend? I was trying to get a listing rather than the opinion of the waiter. Could you rephrase that sentence in hebrew to mean what I wanted to say? Thanks.

Hello Roi,

I understand some of your corrections. What is the difference between The words for seafood that I used and the word that you used?

You started a sentence with MACHI wheras I USED mAH (WHAT). Why is the yud added and how does that change the meaning.

Thank you for your help.

Hi Shelley,
