Nearly 6 months ago, I started a series that I had to put on pause rather quickly, it was called "Hebrew Helps". Well, I'm restarting that series and in doing so, I offer my latest installment which looks at "Syllabification" or as I would rather call it "Word Cutting" and Syllable Terminology. There are some helpful tips and diagrams, so, if you get a chance, check it out below! (To see the earlier installations of this series, click the links at the foot of this post.)
First of all, this is my 800th post!!! So, I'm pretty excited about that. For those of you that have been trekking with me here on Pisteuomen, thanks a lot, you've made it fun! Anyway...I mentioned recently that I was going to begin immersing myself in Hebrew and German on a daily basis for basically the next 2 months (before I begin PhD work). Well, today I began following the schedule I laid out for myself.
For me, one of the best ways to learn something and to retain it, is to try to teach it. So, I figured that in regards to my Hebrew studies, I would come up with some way to try to share my findings. Where better to do that than right here on Pisteuomen?! Thus, I'm going to do something I haven't done in a long time: begin a new series. The name of this new series is called "Hebrew Helps".
The idea is to contintually compile the "tips", "tricks" and "helps" that I come up with when learning Hebrew into short "Hebrew Helps" manuscripts. Of course, given the nature of Hebrew (and languages in-general), these lessons/helps are open to being built on by later lessons/helps. Anyway, more can be said about that later. Here, then, is my first installment in this new series. Hopefully I can be disciplined enough to keep this up. Enjoy! (By the way, if you're intersted in being able to type Hebrew [or Greek] letters on your blog or computer, check out the free transliteration tools I created HERE.)
