How do I say something along the lines of "How has your day been?" in Hebrew?

Any other common gestures? English translations included... and PLEASE no screwing around, this is actually important

You're still trying to get that Israeli chick aren't you?

I don't know a damn thing in Hebrew. Sorry

I don't know functional Hebrew. I self-tought myself much of the language during synagogue services (my synagogue's prayer books always had the translation and the transliteration of the prayers)

I could make up a prayer on the spot in Hebrew, but I have no clue how to say anything that I'd use in everyday life.

Here's a Yiddish site that might be a decent placeholder. If this is in regards to your friend, I don't think "Make sweet, sweet love to me!" is in there.

I'm not trying to nail this girl, in the traditional sense!

She's the most intelligent person I've yet known... she's beyond special

To a male: Ech Ha-yah Ha-yome Shel-cha
To a female: Ech Hi-tah Ha-yome Shel-ach
To more than one person: Ech Ha-yah Ha-yome Shel-a-chem

I tried to make type it the way it's pronounced.

Maybe an Israeli poster can double check me, since I am somewhat rusty.

She's also cute, though. Like Ani Difranco, only less coffee-shop lesbian.

For that you definatly need an Israeli (or at least someone more capable). Unless you want to be riddled with spelling errors.

Zylka - Edan's hebrew is.... weak.

Don' trust him

current phrases:

ma nish-ma? (what's up?) (lit: what is sounding?)

eikh holekh? (how's it goin'?) (lit: how's it goin'?)

ma shlomech? (how are you doing? [fem]) (lit: what is your wellbeing?)

ma ha-matzav? (wazzup?) (lit: how is the situation?)

eich at margisha? (how are you feeling? [fem]) (lit: how are you feeling?)

eich haya ha-yom shelach? (how's your day been?) (lit: how has-been the-day yours? [hebrew grammar])

quote: Ani roste zion shelanu

read as it's written it would mean roughly: "I our Zion want". Zion is another name for Jerusalem (which is located on mount. Zion)

What he probably wanted to say was, "I want us to **** / I want to **** you".

In which case it is said "Ziun". And the grammar is all wrong. It would sound: "I want our ****!" which doesn't make any sense unless you add the word "back" which makes it even more ridiculous.

and how about some sweet good byes, like "sweet dreams" - and "talk to you soon"? (Please do leave out if they would seem akward to an Israeli living in North America)

hmmm

halomot metukim - sweet dreams
halomot paz - 'dolgen' greams (paz isn't exactly golden per se but..)

the closest thing to talk to you soon is not very sweet, but a general see you later aka goodbye.
the closest nice sounding thing i thought of is:

nishtame'a - we shall be hearing each other (yes, it's a wierd tense )

but it isn't used often today.


when did she leave Israel? I would be easier to think of the slang for that period.

and spelled in what sense? in english transliteration? yes. In hebrew - you need hebrew fonts.

Otter will be coming up

She's a little younger than me, in and out of Israel all the time. How about just a basic good bye?

	11-09-2003 09:30									#22
	Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

goodbyes:

either "bye"
or " lehitra'ot" (goodbye)
or "kol tuv" (all the best) (old fashion)
or what i told you about the dreams thing...

I suck at transliteration, but I cant type hebrew characters on the board so....


P.S.-the crappy grammar was intentional
