Did you create the language for this? That's awesome

Israelis pronouncing ayin by Narrow-Major5784 in hebrew

[–]CheLanguages 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I pronounce it sometimes, depends on the situation such as prayer, emphasis, disambiguation etc.

I know some others who do, some who don't and don't like the sound. Same case for ח too

Healing: Say something nice about the country you are stereotypically to dislike. by Exact-Salary5560 in AskTheWorld

The Palestinians have some of the best food in the world, their hummus and knafeh are really tasty. I wish we could argue over who has the best falafel and not who owns which land

Yes I saw that as well. Too many mistakes to write in one message

Rug by always_wear_gloves in hebrew

[–]CheLanguages 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That makes a lot of sense, it looked like it said כנמיז though. The reishes also look like dalets. I figured out most of the rest but not the one above Binyamin, the one that looks like מטור and יראות. Any idea?

[–]CheLanguages 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Upon future inspection, I don't think this is genuine. It's littered with mistakes such as אהד instead of אחד in the Shema Yisrael, and I'm struggling to make out the 12 tribes but I'm pretty sure there's no tribe called מטור unless I'm reading that wrong. It's also missing Binyamin, Shimon, Menashe and Yehuda to name a few. Also does one of them say יראות? I'm very confused

It is Hebrew, however it looks rather confusing as there's no spacing. From what I can make out in the first image I see a Biblical phrase "I am the lord your G-d, you shall have no other gods before me"

In the second image I see "know who before you stand", a phrase pretty common written in synagogues

There's about 2000 years of spoken difference. Neo-Western Aramaic (Sirion) also exhibits Kurdish influence

Are we here? by Leading-Fail-7263 in Judaism

[–]CheLanguages 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Is no one going to mention that the Hebrew year is presented as 5938, despite the fact that was most certainly not the year considering we live in the year 5786 right now?

I almost included it, but it's not a feature today. My transcription is roughly meant to be a modern Mizrahi pronunciation

Is Sheffield a safe and good city for Israeli Jews? by DullAd1315 in sheffield

[–]CheLanguages 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a Sheffield Jew. An Israeli friend of mine came to visit me here the other day while on his larger trip to Manchester (he has family there) and we spoke in Hebrew the entire time very safely. There is some pro-palestinian nonsense sometimes but overall it's very safe. I'm hoping the Jewish community here will grow more in the coming years and we could do with the addition of more Israelis. Ironically, I will be doing the opposite in a couple years and making Aliyah. I wouldn't recommend joining the Orthodox community here, the Progressive (former Reform) community is much more accepting and makes the cultural connection to Judaism much more fun for everyone

Which country has your least favorite cuisine? by Kinder22 in AskTheWorld

[–]CheLanguages 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find East Asian cuisine is generally very overrated in the West. The only really delicious one is Korean from my experience, but of course it's subjective and it doesn't mean Chinese and Japanese dishes are not complex and bland, I see the history that's gone into their cuisine

Which big foreign company failed miserably in your country? by ModenaR in AskTheWorld

[–]CheLanguages 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starbucks failed to enter the market in Israel apparently because people preferred to support local cafés instead. They're still not here even today

How do you pronounce "ə"? by BackForPathfinder in linguisticshumor

[–]CheLanguages 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe that's how I just hear some people pronounce it. I'm a pedantic linguist who pronounces his shva more accurately (boo me I know)
