Hebrew is an ancient Semitic language with a storied history, originating in the region known today as Israel and spoken by the Israelites. Its traditional association is primarily with the Jewish people as the language of sacred texts, such as the Hebrew Bible, also known as the Tanakh. The earliest examples of written Hebrew date back to the 10th century BCE. However, by the end of the Roman period, Hebrew had largely fallen out of everyday spoken use, being replaced by Aramaic and later Arabic in many of the areas where Hebrew speakers lived.
What is particularly remarkable about Hebrew is its revival as a living language in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a phenomenon often attributed to the efforts of Eliezer Ben-Yehuda, who saw it as essential to the Zionist movement. This revitalization transformed Hebrew from the language of prayer and religious study into the vernacular for millions of people living in Israel, making it one of the world's oldest languages to be brought back into everyday use. In 1948, when the State of Israel was established, Hebrew was declared one of its official languages.
Modern Hebrew, or Ivrit as it is called in Hebrew, differs significantly from its ancient predecessor, incorporating many modern words and idioms. However, it also retains much of its traditional grammar and vocabulary. Unique features of Hebrew include its writing system, which is read from right to left, and its alphabet, made up entirely of consonants, with vowel sounds being indicated by a system of dots and dashes known as niqqud. Additionally, Hebrew is a highly synthetic language, in which the meanings of words are modified with prefixes, suffixes, and infixes, rather than relying on separate words to indicate tense and number, something that can be a challenge for language learners to master.
