The Hebrew Alphabet
In Hebrew there are 22 letters, some of their sounds exist in English and some don't. A few letters have an ending form - that means that those letters look different when written at the end of a word (their pronunciation does not change).
Each letter is given with the pronunciation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) and a close-matching example in English:
(Letters in blue are taught in this skill)
| Name | Letter | Ending form | IPA | English example |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aleph | א | /ʔ/ | uh (usually silent or similar to the letter "a" in English: a placeholder for vowels)** | |
| Bet | ב | /b/*,/v/ | bet, vet | |
| Gimel | ג | /g/ | go | |
| Dalet | ד | /d/ | dog | |
| Hey | ה | /h/ | hen (often silent in modern colloquial speech) | |
| Vav | ו | /v/ | vet | |
| Zayin | ז | /z/ | zoo | |
| Chet | ח | /X/ | loch | |
| Tet | ט | /t/ | ten | |
| Yod | י | /j/ | yes | |
| Kaf | כ | ך | /k/*, /X/ | cat, loch |
| Lamed | ל | /l/ | log | |
| Mem | מ | ם | /m/ | man |
| Nun | נ | ן | /n/ | no |
| Samekh | ס | /s/ | see | |
| Ayin | ע | /ʔ/, /ʕ/ | uh | |
| Pei | פ | ף | /p/*,/f/ | pay, fool |
| Tsadi | צ | ץ | /ts/ | cats |
| Qof | ק | /k/ | cat | |
| Resh | ר | /ʁ/ | run (similar to the French r) | |
| Shin | ש | /ʃ/,/s/ | she, see | |
| Tav | ת | /t/ | tap |
*These sounds are pronounced only when the letter is at the beginning of the word or at the beginning of a syllable. Otherwise, the other sound is usually the one that is pronounced.
**A common example for the use of "א" as a silent letter is the word לא (/lo/), which means "no".
