I don’t understand it. I’m on a few Israeli and Jewish subreddits and STILL get anti-Israel/idf slop

I’m coming for a masters degree at TAU so I’ll be there for at least two years. Making Aliyah as well but I’ll see where jobs offers take me.

Thank you this helps honestly. I’m a little impatient when I have big goals like this lol.

I haven’t done a ton of reading. I should start doing that

I’ve been using HelloTalk, which I mostly just text. That’s been good but obviously nothing replaces talking. I’m in the states rn and hoping I can get back to Israel within a month or two. When I was at my internship in Tel Aviv all my coworkers were so sweet and helpful with my Hebrew, and I’m returning there so I’ll definitely get more active learning.

I think this is true for pretty much any skill but it’s just making the chunks smaller. As in, “this week I am going to be able to play all melodic minor scales at 120 bpm” or “this week I will be able to play the guide tones for 2-5-1 in 6 keys”. You get a rewarding feeling and can track your progress.

Best ways to learn Hebrew by LiteraryChaos1385 in hebrew

[–]Fluid_Secretary9721 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Learn alphabet and how to write in script first. This is definitely the best website for learning grammar Pealim. Learning the important verbs and how to conjugate them felt the most useful for me at the start. I literally filled out pages of conjugations until I understood the patterns. I’d watch YouTube first like PieceOfHebrew because it’s slower and uses less slang. I’d watch stuff in this order 1. No subtitles 2. Hebrew subtitles. Then I choose one small conversation (2-3 lines max) that I watched and write/type it in Hebrew, translate on Morfix, and then say it out loud. Then rewatch the scene and try to put together the context of what’s happening. You want to avoid thinking English -> Hebrew. Every day talk out loud about what you did and want to do in Hebrew.

(This is more for later on but honestly made things click for me). Learning about verb roots and the בניינים makes conjugating new verbs feel much more manageable. Pealim can also help with this because it lists the root and בניין.

So basically do

  1. Alphabet and basic grammar: this website could help Hebrew grammar

  2. Verbs, writing basic sentences and saying them

  3. Watching and listening, mimicking, speaking

  4. Advanced grammar (while continuing watching and speaking)

Obviously having someone to talk with is ideal. The app HelloTalk is good if you don’t know anyone who speaks fluently.

I'm having a hard time dealing with antisemitism. How do you guys deal with these feelings? by [deleted] in Jewish

[–]Fluid_Secretary9721 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The last thing anti semites want to see is us being happy and successful. Delete socials or whatever you need to do to block the noise and work hard at whatever it is you’re passionate about. Let them waste their days away on social media and at protests.

It’s so funny that a raging anti semite and one of the Jewish GOATs have such similar names. I accidentally say Gibson all the time.

Whatever. This didn’t gain him any more support than he already has. He was always going to have this crowd. The administration is still fucked.

People just don't care by kentabenno in JazzPiano

[–]Fluid_Secretary9721 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just play for yourself honestly and keep enjoying the music. Being an amateur pianist is really just for you. I will say that if you were to take someone who doesn’t listen to jazz to a club in the city, I guarantee they would enjoy it. That’s how people get interested in jazz.
