| Questions about language - In order to prevent many topics with one answer on the specific question, I would suggest posting questions in one topic. Eli | |
| Eli | Tuesday 20th of February 2007 07:45:04 AM |
| - I remind to all the students and guests to post their questions here! | |

| 6.25 - Dear all, I should really know this, but suddenly am not sure: if one wanted to say (for time) 6.25 {or 6.35 using ל) would one just say ?בשבע ועשרים וחמשה Many thanks and warm greetings Simon | |
| Antigone83 | Wednesday 14th of March 2007 12:53:44 AM |
| - בשש, עשרים וחמש. 6 זה שש ולא שבע. | |

| תודה, ועוד שאלה - למה אומרים \"שעת השין\" ולא \"שעת התו\" אם הכוונה היא לרגע האחרון של הפעולה? ככה? :D | |

| - חיטטתי קצת באינטרנט וכנראה שזו השאלה מאנגלית: | |

| - אבל H-hour וD-day באנגלית זה זמן ההתחלה של מבצע צבאי. לעומת זאת, מקובל להשתמש בביטוי the eleventh hour כשמדובר בזמן הסיום. אבל זה מעניין, התיאוריה שלך על השאלה מאנגלית.שמתי לב שאחת הדרכים ליצירת מילים בעברית זה תרגום מילולי מאנגלית. | |

| crease - cassock (alb) - Dear all, apologies for two silly questions [maybe]: with dictionaries I cannot figure this out properly, so I thought I\'d ask with the hope perhaps a native speaker or someone very fluent in the language can respond as to what is actually used in Hebrew today. Both regard clothing. (1) how does one say (sharp) crease, as on a well ironed pair of trousers? I found קמט, קיפול and קפל(kefel, kemet?, kamut?), but when I want to describe a piece of clothing, what do I use? (2) the long robes (cassock, and alb over it) used by catholic priests or monks - say, the pilgrims coming to Israel - wear: does one just call it glima (kehuna) or have other expression developed? I apologize to bother - this may not be of interest to many - and send many thanks and greetings from Prague to all. Simon | |
| Eli | Friday 27th of April 2007 12:04:08 AM |
| - Hi Simon! For the first one we use קפל - kefel. קמט - is used basically in plural form - קמטים - creases. It happens if you don\'t iron your shirt/pants. For the second one, we use גלימה - glima as you suggested. By the way, all your questions are interesting! Continue posting! | |

| kfalim - Dear Eli, dear all, thanks so much, above all. The question about creases was actually aimed elsewhere a little bit: what I was looking for is that which occurs when you *do* iron your shirt or pants: in English it is the same word (I believe), in German they call it Buegelfalte. But my Langenscheidt Hebrew dictionary apparently thinks that Buegelfalte is an obscure word and does not list it... Warm greetings and sorry for this - sometimes there´s things only a native can answer...:-) Greetings, Simon | |
| Eli | Tuesday 01st of May 2007 06:20:14 AM |
| - Yes, that what I said :) \"kefel\" occurs when you iron. \"kemet\" - when you don\'t iron. | |
