The course is an introduction to modern Hebrew as
it is spoken and written in Israel today. It begins with the learning of script
and pronunciation and works rapidly into a wide range of texts and topics that
build active and passive lexicon as well as grammatical structures. Differences
between standard and colloquial Hebrew as well as significant aspects of
Israeli culture will be highlighted. Students work in the language lab, watch
movies and TV programs, and have an additional two-hour session with the Hebrew
tutor for conversational practice. Open to students with no previous knowledge
of Hebrew and to others in consultation with the instructor.
