Questions is the twentieth skill (assuming read left to right) in the language tree for Hebrew. It has four lessons and teaches several question words and related vocabulary.
Grammar Notes[]
האם[]
This word was introduced in Letters 1, but this is a good time to review it.
האם does not have a direct translation to English; its job is to indicate that the following statement is actually a yes/no question (such as "Is it raining?"). It is completely normal to leave it out, although it might come across as a tiny bit informal.
You cannot use האם to indincate questions that do not call for a yes or no answer.
Which[]
There are three forms for this word:
- איזה = singular masculine
- איזו = singular feminine
- אילו = plural
However, native Hebrew speakers may only use the singular masculine in informal conversations. Duolingo will in general accept only the proper gender and number for "which".
