The truth is, focusing&nbsp;- putting our energy into something - is what makes things move in the world. The Hebrew word for to focus&nbsp;or to concentrate&nbsp;is לְהִתְרַכֵּז. The root of this reflexive-intensive הִתְפַּעֵל verb is ר.כ.ז (r.k.z). It's the same root as the word for center&nbsp;- מֶרְכָּז. An example: הִיא מִתְרַכֶּזֶת כְּשֶׁהִיא עוֹבֶדֶת. She focuses when she works. Concentration&nbsp;or focus&nbsp;is רִכּוּז, while focused&nbsp;is מְרֻכָּזin the masculine and מְרֻכֶּזֶתin the feminine. For example: בְּרֶגַע זֶה אֲנִי לֹא מְרֻכָּז, אָבָל אֲנִי בְּאֶמֶת רוֹצֶה לְהַקְשִׁיב לָךְ. At this moment I'm not focused, but I really do want to listen to you (a female).

And the Torah - הַתּוֹרָה- was given on tablets - not the kind you swallow (that's&nbsp;a&nbsp;כַּדּוּר), but the kind made of stone. The word the תורה uses for tablets&nbsp;is לֻחוֹת, with one tablet&nbsp;being a לוּחַ&nbsp;- a masculine noun, despite its looking feminine in the plural form. Modern Hebrew takes the word לוח and uses it to mean board, such the one teachers write on. So we've got: פַּעַם, הַמּוֹרָה הָיְתָה כּוֹתֶבֶת עַל הַלּוּחַ עִם גִּיר. It used to be (literally, once), the (female) teacher would write on the board with chalk. Here are modern varieties of the educational לוח: לוּחַ מָחִיק erasable board (a whiteboard) לוּחַ חָכָם smartboard לוח has many other meanings, including control panel, calendar&nbsp;and wooden plank.

When I inquired why, thenoreply@blogger.com (Ami Steinberger) having trouble&nbsp;seeing&nbsp;the print? מַזְגָן highly recommended&nbsp; for further vocabulary growth I stayed once in a Paris hotel for a few days in July. It was sweltering hot, and there was no air conditioner in the room. When I inquired why, the hotel staff told that it only gets that hot a few days in the year, so there's no real need. In Israel, air conditioners are already blowing lots of cold air on those escaping from the heat (which I don't mind so much). The Hebrew term for air conditioner&nbsp;is מַזְגָן. Its root is מ.ז.ג meaning blending&nbsp;or&nbsp;merging&nbsp;- the air is blended&nbsp;inside the machine and blown out, also blending, conditioning&nbsp;the air in the room. So a מזגן is literally&nbsp;that which blends. An example: בְּתֵל אָבִיב, יֵשׁ אֲנָשִׁים שֶׁמְּבַלִּים אֶת כָּל הַקַּיִץ עִם הַמַּזְגָן. In Tel Aviv, there are people who spend the whole summer with the air conditioner. I don't live in Tel Aviv, but if I did, I wouldn't be one of those people. You might also hear Israelis using the term מִזּוּג אֲוִיר. This means, literally, air conditioning, as מיזוגis the noun form of the active-intensive פִּעֵל verb, לְמַזֵּג- to blend, to merge.

On the one hand, religions list it among the most grievous of sins or character traits. On the other hand, the gay community calls upon it as their staple state of being. This kind of pride&nbsp;is called, in Hebrew:&nbsp;לַהֲקַת אֲרָיוֹת. But perhaps more accessible to most people is that swelling-up feeling inside, when we know we've done a good job, when someone speaks of our native country in a foreign land... or when someone we love is shining in the spotlight. The Hebrew word for pride&nbsp;is גַּאֲוָה, while proud&nbsp;is גֵּאֶהin the masculine and גֵּאָהin the feminine. For example: לִבִּי מִתְמַלֵּא בְּגַּאֲוָה כְּשֶׁאֲנִי רוֹאֶה דֶּגֶל כָּחוֹל לָבָן. My heart is filled with pride when I see a blue-and-white flag. and הִיא גֵּאָה בַּבֵּן שֶׁלָּהּ. She's proud of her son.

Sigmund Freud developed the concept of the unconscious. Although, strictly speaking, the&nbsp;unconscious&nbsp;should be called תת-הַמודע, since תת-מודע is almost a single word on its own, it's more appropriate to say הַתת-מודע. Note that here unconscious&nbsp;refers to the psychological phenomenon, not the state of being unconscious&nbsp;of what's going around around due to injury, etc. That is חֲסַר הַכָּרָה.

My first post was to Beit T'shuva, a Jewish center for addiction recovery on Venice Blvd. The Hebrew word for addiction&nbsp;is הִתְמַכְּרוּת, of the root מ.כ.ר (m.k.r) meaning sale&nbsp;- since one sells&nbsp;him/herself, in a way, to the object of addiction. In context: "בֵּית תְּשׁוּבָה" הוּא מֶרְכַּז יְהוּדִי לִגְמִילָה מֵהִתְמַכְּרוּת. Beit T'shuva (literally, House of Return)&nbsp;is a Jewish center for recovery (literally, weaning) from addiction. התמכרות comes from the reflexive-intensive הִתְפַעֵל verb, לְהִתְמַכֵּר. For example: לֹא קָשֶׁה לְהִתְמַכֵּר לְעִשּׁוּן. It's not difficult to become addicted to smoking. Someone addicted&nbsp;is מָכוּרif a male and מְכוּרָהif a female. For example: הִיא מְכוּרָה לְפֵייסְבּוּק. She is addicted to Facebook.

To spend money&nbsp;or to create an expense&nbsp;is לְהוֹצִיא כֶּסֶף&nbsp;- literally, to take out money.&nbsp; For example: הִיא חוֹשֶׁבֶת פַּעֲמַיִם לִפְנֵי שֶׁהִיא מוֹצִיאָה כֶּסֶף עַל מוֹתָרוֹת. She thinks twice before spending money on luxuries. להוציאis an&nbsp;active-causative הִפְעִיל verb. Don't confuse this term with the one for to withdraw money&nbsp;from an ATM (automated teller machine) - that's לִמְשֹוֹךְ כֶּסֶף- literally, to pull money. למשוךis an&nbsp;active-simple פָּעַל verb. Term 2 Another way of saying to spend&nbsp;is לְבַזְבֵּז, though people usually use this term to mean&nbsp;to waste. For example: בְּנֵי הַנֹּעַר בִּזְבִּזוּ אַלְפֵי שְׁקָלִים שֶׁל הוֹרֵיהֶם בְּמַהֲלַךְ הַקַּיִץ. The teens spent (wasted) thousands of shekels of their parents' money over the summer. לבזבז is an active-intensive פִּעֵל verb. Likewise, the noun form of לבזבז is בִּזְבּוּז.&nbsp;Thus, a waste of money&nbsp;is בזבוז כסף, a waste of time is בזבוז זְמַן, etc. Check Out Our Conversational-Hebrew Program ulpan tel aviv, ulpan rbs, hebrew online, ulpan gush etzion, ulpan efrat, ulpan ramat beit shemesh, ulpan, ulpan raanana, ulpan jerusalem, learn to speak hebrewhttp://ktzat-ivrit.ulpan.com/2013/04/how-to-say-to-spend-money-in-hebrew.htmlhttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/KtzatIvrit/~3/dyH7RemZR_I/how-to-say-as-yourself-in-hebrew.htmlulpan tel avivulpan rbshebrew onlineulpan gush etzionulpan efratulpan ramat beit shemeshulpanulpan raananaulpan jerusalemlearn to speak hebrewnoreply@blogger.com (Ami Steinberger)Thu, 18 Apr 2013 02:54:00 PDTtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7711591271993636177.post-2207763739151822236<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div class="" style="clear: both;

The makers of Modern Hebrew took the root&nbsp;ט.ו.ס&nbsp;- t.w.s - meaning&nbsp;flying&nbsp;and plugged it into a noun structure beginning with a&nbsp;מ&nbsp;(m), yielding the common word for&nbsp;airplane,&nbsp;מָטוֹס.&nbsp;It's the same noun structure as that of&nbsp;מָקוֹם&nbsp;-&nbsp;place, which also comes from a root whose middle letter is&nbsp;ו&nbsp;(w) -&nbsp;ק.ו.מ&nbsp;(k.w.m). To create the word for&nbsp;airshow, Hebrew plugs מטוס into another noun structure, with&nbsp;מַטָּס&nbsp;as the resulting word. Note that the same word-change (morphological) process takes place to create the word for&nbsp;flotilla:&nbsp;Hebrew takes the word for&nbsp;oar&nbsp;or&nbsp;paddle&nbsp;-&nbsp;מָשׁוֹט, plugs it into that other noun structure, and&nbsp;מַשָּׁטis born. חַג עַצְמָאוּת שָׂמֵחַ!

One of the words that the root ז.כ.ר generates is מַזְכֶּרֶת- souvenir&nbsp;(see earlier entry). Another is זִכָּרוֹן- memory&nbsp;or remembrance, as in the phrase, יוֹם הַזִּכָּרוֹן- The&nbsp;Day of Remembrance&nbsp;or Memorial Day. Another word that the&nbsp;ז.כ.ר&nbsp;root produces is that for a reminder&nbsp;- תִּזְכּוֹרֶת. For example: מִי שֶׁנִּמְצָא בָּאָרֶץ לֹא צָרִיךְ תִּזְכּוֹרֶת שֶׁהָעֶרֶב וּמָחָר יוֹם הַזִּכָּרוֹן לְחַלָלֵי מַעַרְכוֹת יִשְׂרָאֵל וּלְנִפְגְּעֵי פְּעֻלּוֹת הָאֵיבָה.
