The Fastest and Cheapest Way to Learn Hebrew
By Neal Walters | January 11, 2009
One fun way to learn Hebrew is by watching short online videos. Numerous teachers are now submitting their videos to various video sites. Let’s look at a few types of videos being uploaded.
All beginners must start with the basics, the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet. While you can learn to speak Hebrew without reading it, many of the videos will show the letters, so you will want to learn how to pronounce them first. There are several ALEF-BET songs available online, but one of the all-time favorites is the one by Debbie Friedman.
Some of the videos are previews of commercial products, such as “At Home with Hebrew” and “Hebrew Kindergarten” from HebrewResources.com. Ulpan Or has uploaded several videos of their Ulpan students practicing what they have learned.
There are several types of videos where the words are displayed on the screen, and someone reads the words. An author known as “bnaiorpueblo” has posted several of these using verses from the Hebrew scriptures.
Singing Hebrew songs is one of the best ways to learn Hebrew. The melodies tend to stick in your mind. You often find yourself humming or singing your newly acquired songs throughout the day.
Children can also learn from the online videos. One set of Hebrew lessons are taught by “Vampire Bear”. As an adult, it may sound juvenile, but children probably love it.
It’s also possible to learn Hebrew liturgy via the online videos. One of the lessons teaches the prayers for lighting candles on Friday night before the Shabbat meal. Several people have recorded the Shema V’Ahavta, and allow you to follow the words while the liturgy is sung.
If you are already past the alphabet, then you might be ready to just learn some vocabulary. Some videos contain simple lists of vocabulary words, pronounced with a good Israeli accent. The videos are usually just a few minutes, and organized by topics.
To summarize, free videos are one of the latest ways to learn Hebrew. Viewers enjoy the ability to hear the words pronounced, and follow along with the words displayed in the video. One of the best parts, of course, is that the videos are all free.
Check out the videos on our Learn Hebrew video web site.
