Start Speaking Hebrew Immediately

Learning by actively speaking is a proven strategy that dramatically boosts fluency in Hebrew. The secret to success is consistent practice—so why wait? Each phrase features pronunciation from native Hebrew speakers.

  1. 1. שלום. = Hello.

    First impressions can open doors—so start strong! Even learning a simple "שלום" (shalom, "hello") can completely transform your interactions with Israelis. Listen carefully to the pronunciation, and confidently begin your Hebrew conversations.

    שלום.

  2. 2. מה נשמע? = How are you?

    Wondering how to politely continue a conversation after saying hello? Asking "מה שלומך?" (ma shlomcha?, "how are you?") in Hebrew shows genuine interest. Listen carefully—this essential phrase helps you smoothly engage in everyday Hebrew conversations.

    מה נשמע?

  3. 3. מה שמך? = What is your name?

    Traveling in Israel means meeting many new faces, from friendly fellow passengers to local hosts or taxi drivers. To ask someone’s name in Hebrew, say "איך קוראים לך?" (ech kor'im lecha?, informal) or "איך קוראים לך?" (ech kor'im lach?, informal feminine). Listen and master these practical phrases, enhancing your everyday interactions in Hebrew.

    מה שמך?

  4. 4. נעים להכיר אותך. = Nice to meet you.

    Locals warmly welcome your effort to speak Hebrew—it reflects respect and curiosity about their culture. When meeting someone new, use the phrase "נעים להכיר אותך" (na'im lehakir otcha, "nice to meet you"). Listen to the clear pronunciation and ensure your introductions leave a lasting impression.

    נעים להכיר אותך.

  5. 5. בבקשה. = Please.

    Good manners are at the heart of every culture, and Israel is certainly no exception. Israelis highly value politeness and respectful language. Knowing the right Hebrew expressions at the right moment can greatly enhance your interactions. To politely ask for something or simply show courtesy, use the Hebrew word ""בבקשה"" (bevakasha), meaning ""please"". It’s an essential word for anyone learning conversational Hebrew.

    בבקשה.

  6. 6. תודה. = Thank you.

    Our mothers taught us many important things, including the value of expressing gratitude. If you want to show appreciation in Hebrew, say ""תודה"" (todah), meaning ""thank you"". This short yet powerful phrase reflects kindness and respect—essential qualities when mastering Hebrew words for everyday conversations.

    תודה.

  7. 7. על לא דבר. = You're welcome.

    Courtesy speaks every language—and Israelis greatly appreciate polite exchanges. After receiving thanks, reply with "בבקשה" (bevakasha, "you're welcome"). Listen now, and master one of the cornerstones of respectful communication in Hebrew.

    על לא דבר.

  8. 8. סליחה! = Excuse me!

    It only takes about 7 seconds to leave an impression—one that could last forever. Often, the key to making a positive impression is as simple as saying ""סליחה"" (slicha), meaning ""excuse me"" in Hebrew. Listen carefully and learn the correct pronunciation—it’s essential for polite interactions when learning Hebrew!

    סליחה!

  9. 9. כמה זה עולה? = How much does it cost?

    Exploring markets or boutiques in Tel Aviv or Jerusalem? Knowing how to ask "כמה זה עולה?" (kama ze oleh?, "how much does it cost?") is incredibly helpful. Click and listen to confidently navigate shopping trips and enhance your Hebrew-speaking skills.

    כמה זה עולה?

  10. 10. להתראות. = Goodbye.

    To wrap up conversations on a friendly note, say goodbye just like a local would. In Hebrew, simply say "להתראות" (lehitraot, "goodbye"). Here’s exactly how to pronounce it clearly and confidently.
