It kinda sounds like Arabic, but it's way less relevant. I don’t really get why anyone who’s not Israeli or Jewish would bother learning it. The alphabet is so different that cyrillic doesn’t even feel that foreign by comparison

I can intellectually understand anti-Semitism, but denying the existence of Hebrew entirely is beyond me. It's literally one of the most studied and obsessed over languages in western history, biblical scholars have been pouring over it since the Middle Ages

Why do you think Hebrew is a larp? It wasn't spoken for a long time, but the language as a written form always existed.
>>
>>220707095
Incredible language, you get high intelligibility of Phoenician and Biblical Hebrew with it. Also sounds beautiful. Some non-arabized Aramaic dialects sound similar too.
I'm barely A2 and can read parts of the OT, working on my Greek to also be able to follow along the NT.
Probably my fav of the semitics, followed by Aramaic and Coptic.

>It kinda sounds like Arabic, but it's way less relevant
Nah, it thankfully doesn't sound like sandbarking. Aramaic is much closer, maybe some Shami too.
>I don’t really get why anyone who’s not Israeli or Jewish would bother learning it
Plenty of Christians study it. In my parents' house there are two intertextual Bibles (eng-greek-hebrew). It's also a beautiful lang.
I myself have been studying it and considered signing up to an ulpan or doing a 2-3 mo trip to Israel.

Bueno, de hecho se seguía hablando. Era en gran parte el idioma en que las comunidades judías se comunicaban entre ellas, no sólo en lo escrito sino a la hora de debatir, conversar, etc. y más allá de únicamente temas religiosos.
Algo así como una Lingua Franca aunque no exactamente.
A veces, con raíz en el odio y querer forjar una narrativa de "polacos inventándose una lengua", la gente acaba intentando imaginarse un mundo en que sólo un par de viejos barbudos escribían alguna que otra carta en hebreo y hasta llegó su uso.

You can repeat it, but it doesn't make it true. Just means you're a repeat offender who's allergic to evidence.
Hebrew is a Northwest Semitic language (Canaanite family), but claiming it has no extra-biblical evidence is objectively false. Here are the receipts you’re ignoring:
>Tel Dan Stele (9th century BCE): Arameans bragging about fighting the "House of David" (BYTDWD) and the "King of Israel."
>Mesha Stele (9th century BCE): Mentions "Omri, King of Israel" and "Yahweh" by name.
>Siloam Inscription (8th century BCE): Pure classical Hebrew found in an engineering tunnel in Jerusalem. It’s not "Canaanite scribbles". It’s a Judean government project.
>Lachish Letters (6th century BCE): Actual military dispatches from the Babylonian siege written in Hebrew.
>Ketef Hinnom Scrolls (7th century BCE): Silver scrolls containing the Priestly Blessing from the Torah, found in a tomb in Jerusalem.
The "it's all just Canaanite" argument is like saying English doesn't exist because we use the Latin alphabet. You're confusing script with language because you've never looked at a primary source in your life.

Well, you've asserted it, so it must be true! I already dropped the primary sources (Tel Dan, Mesha, Siloam, Lachish, Ketef Hinnom) for anyone actually interested to see you're a drooling retard with nothing of value to say. Feel free to address any of them.

Are you actually retarded? As in, do you have a legal guardian?
Extra-biblical means real archaeological artifacts, not Bible pages, retard. These tiny silver amulets from a Jerusalem tomb (late 7th/early 6th BCE) contain the exact Priestly Blessing from Numbers 6:24-26 word-for-word in Paleo-Hebrew. They prove the text existed in written Hebrew centuries before the exile.

>>220718247
That one's a bit more controversial. I preferred restricting myself to stuff that's solid, indisputable. The ones I listed (Tel Dan, Mesha, Siloam, Lachish, Ketef Hinnom) are rock-solid Iron Age Hebrew from actual kingdoms of Israel/Judah. No serious debate on those being real Paleo-Hebrew inscriptions.

Spoken Hebrew doesn't sound bad. Quite fine, in fact

>>220718454
I'm only familiar with the first two though I think they're not in Hebrew.**
Though I concur with the wider point of Hebrew dating from around then or earlier. For example, you have the Gezer calendar.
**To be fair, I am aware some linguists do favor the idea of treating the Canaanite languages as dialects of a Canaanite language, hence the distinction between Ancient Hebrew vs Phoenician vs Moabite being an ultimately trivial one.

In some traditions (e.g., Yemenite), the word עליו (upon him) is pronounced as something like Alau, unlike the Modern Hebrew pronunciation (Alav). The revivers of Modern Hebrew were Ashkenazim, but I wouldn't call it pandering to Ashkenazim since that shift also happened in Sephardic traditions.
See, for example, how the Yemenite cantor pronounces עליו, from Genesis 18:
וַיִּשָּׂא עֵינָיו וַיַּרְא וְהִנֵּה שְׁלֹשָׁה אֲנָשִׁים נִצָּבִים עָלָיו

So Modern Hebrew has accents or mass media and education has produced an unified language, both in script and speech too?

>So Modern Hebrew has accents or mass media and education has produced an unified language, both in script and speech too?
Accents are really only a thing among the elderly. Young native-born speakers all sound the same. But traditional accents are retained in Torah reading (as the example of the Yemenite cantor illustrates).

>>220726245
How would you feel if modern Hebrew tried to adopt the Sephardic pronunciation as a middle ground between Mizrahi and current Ashkenazi-dominant Israeli Hebrew? It sounds "softer" than the Mizrahi register and should be easier to adapt to as a modern speaker, but it's still phonologically accurate and pronounces ע ח correctly and differentiates between ק כ etc.
Vidrel is a nice example i found a while ago. Please tell me if this is how Sephardic usually sounds https://youtu.be/-jB7JLNqTF8

>>220726245
Also i was checking out mizrahi recitations of the Shema and found this Iraqi gentleman. He pronounces all the consonants properly but for some reason pronounces the ע of שמע in שמע ישראל as a vowel /ɑ/ instead of a Semitic /ʕ/. Why is this? Was it always supposed to be pronounced like an א? Why write it with a ayin then?

Había periódicos en Ladino en la diáspora, casi todos usaban el alfabeto hebreo creo. Todos los puros viejos Sefaradis que conocí dijeron que era para que los Turkos no le espiarían jajaja.
Ladino es solo español antiguo del siglo 15 con algunas palabras en hebreo, griego, o francés. No es como un dialecto muy especial. Yo aprendí español más porque diy mitad latino, pero cuando estaba allá con mi papá, hablo con mi profesora de español sobre palabras más antiguas que usaban los Judíos. Forqueta en vez de tenedor por ejemplo

>>220727632

Forqueta tiene sentido. Me suena al "fork" que usas en ingles.

It's definitely supposed to be an ayin. I think it just sounds different because of the way it's chanted, to wit, the note is stretched out. In the Torah scroll, the ayin in שמע is even written in an extra-large font specifically to make sure it's not mistaken for an aleph [picrel].

Sounds like standard Sephardic pronunciation, yes. Though most people only really put in the effort when reading from the Torah.
Your proposal is a nice idea, but it sounds like a pipe dream. I'm afraid millions of Israelis have already settled on the current accent for practical reasons and won't ever budge.

I disliked the harsh throat sounds in Hebrew at first, but over time, with a lot of exposure, I came to enjoy it as an accentuating inflection point in a sentence. When pronounced by a feminine Slav, the "harsh" parts of Hebrew almost vibrate, like a cat purring.
https://youtu.be/LtY23Aq1mTI
I've been trying to familiarize myself with exposure to Chinese in the same way; but i've been failing so far. It still sounds like alleycats fighting. Opera is an exaggeration, but I chose it just to get the point across clearly.

Ecuador, vivi allá 8 años entonces lo único que hice fue irme a una escuela cuando era joven
La mejor manera de aprender hebreo es estar en Israel y tener amigos que no hablar tu idioma, pero porque no vives aquí, creo que lo mejor que puedas hacer es comenzar a aprender palabras, el alfabeto. Hay muchos Israelis que vienen a Peru de vacaciones después del ejército entonces puedes irte a sus eventos en Beit Chabad o encontrarlos en lugares turísticos. También puedes aprender bíblia en Hebreo para motivación pero no es el mismo hebreo de hoy

Nunca he ido a Ecuador, aunque es un pais vecino de Peru. Espero poder visitar algun dia.
Nunca he visto israelis en el Peru, aunque se que vienen.
Intente ir a Beit Chabad, pero si no eres de la comunidad no te dejan entrar. Asi que no se como podria ir a sus eventos.
El alfabeto si estoy aprendiendo, aunque me gustaria un profesor.
Hay sitios en donde hablar con israelis ademas de este sitio?

If anything, there'd be fewer. And comparing Gaulish to Hebrew is a massive self-own anyway. Hebrew was a written language in the 10th century BCE (look up the Gezer calendar or Qeiyafa). Gaulish inscriptions don't even show up in real numbers until the 3rd century BCE. that’s a 700-year head start for Hebrew. Of course there’s more entropy for iron age Judean records than roman-era potshards from Gaul. Also, the druids literally banned writing for centuries while Judea had a professional scribe class and state bureaucracy - we have found hundreds of routine Hebrew military and tax receipts (Arad, Lachish, etc.) from 800 BCE. If you actually count the Dead Sea Scrolls and Second Temple stuff, Hebrew dwarfs the entire Gaulish corpus by like 100x. Basically, you’re just discovering the second law of thermodynamics and getting mad at the Levant for it.

Netanyahu once recounted a meeting he had 20 years ago with then Turkish prime minister Mesut Yılmaz. In Netanyahu's telling of the event, he offered Yilmaz free pick of any Ottoman artifact from Israeli museums or to name his price, but Yilmaz refused, citing concerns of an Islamist backlash (doing a favor to the Zionists, helping them establish Jewish presence in the land).
Whether that's the most accurate version of that meeting, one thing can be said with certitude: If they were willing, money would be no object.
