Learning Journal #3

[Alper Daron]

In the third week of our meetings with Haya, we went over the previous vocabulary that we discussed in the video, and we also listened to a Hebrew song, sang by an Israeli singer and we added some more new vocabulary. I learned some basic love-related words that we hear very often in many songs.

Also, I wanted to learn the colors, so I found a website, which taught all the colors in hebrew. I wrote them down to my notebook, and I am trying to memorize all of them. But it seems like it is not that easy to remember all of them, because the colors also change depending on whether the word is a masculine/feminine/plural form. For ex: white can be "lavan" for mas.sing. "levana" for fem.sing. "lvanim" for mas.plu. and "levanot" for fem.plu. depending on the object/s that is/are white.

Other than that, I keep on working on Rosetta Stone, which I think helps a little bit on learning some more random words such as: water, bread, rice, apple, milk, car, newspaper, fish, eggs and etc. I also find Rosetta Stone helpful on learning how to say basic things in proper grammar.
