In Hebrew, "have" is translated as "yesh" (ื™ึตืฉื). "Yesh" is an irregular verb, which means its conjugation pattern is different than regular verbs. Below are the conjugations of "yesh" in present tense:

|}
|}


=== Examples ===
Notice that "yesh" is usually combined with the preposition "ืœ" (le), which means "to" or "for." This is why we have "yesh li" (I have) instead of just "yesh." The object possessed, indicated by "ืœ," follows the verb.
Here are some examples of how to use the verb "have" in Hebrew:
ย 
== Expressing Obligation ==
ย 
In Hebrew, we use "yesh" to express obligation. In this case, "yesh" is combined with the preposition "ืœ" to mean "must" or "have to." For example:
ย 
* ืื ื™ ื—ื™ื™ื‘ ืœืœืžื•ื“ ืขื‘ืจื™ืช (Ani chayav lilmud ivrit) - I must learn Hebrew.
* ืืชื” ื—ื™ื™ื‘ ืœื’ืžื•ืจ ืืช ื”ืขื‘ื•ื“ื” (Atah chayav ligmor et ha'avoda) - You have to finish the work.
ย 
Notice that we use the word "chayav" (ื—ื™ื™ื‘) to indicate obligation.
ย 
== Possessive Pronouns ==
ย 
In Hebrew, we often use possessive pronouns instead of the verb "have" to indicate possession. Possessive pronouns are formed by adding a suffix to the noun. Below are the possessive pronouns in Hebrew:


{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! English !! Hebrew !! Pronunciation
|-
|-
! Hebrew !! Pronunciation !! English Translation
| My || ืฉืœื™ || Sheli
|-
|-
| ื™ึตืฉ ืœึดื™ ื—ึธื‘ึตืจ (yes li kha-ver) || yeh-sheh lee kha-veh-reh || I have a friend
| Your (masc. sing.) || ืฉืœืš || Shelcha
|-
|-
| ื™ึตืฉ ืœึฐืšึธ ื—ึธื‘ึตืจื” (yes le-kha kha-ve-ra) || yeh-sheh le-khah kha-veh-rah || You have a friend
| Your (fem. sing.) || ืฉืœืš || Shelach
|-
|-
| ื™ึตืฉ ืœื•ึน ื—ึธื‘ึตืจื™ื (yes lo kha-ve-rim) || yeh-sheh loh kha-veh-reem || He has friends
| His || ืฉืœื• || Shelo
|-
|-
| ื™ึตืฉ ืœึธื”ึผ ื—ึธื‘ึตืจื•ึนืช (yes la kha-ve-rot) || yeh-sheh lah kha-veh-roht || She has friends
| Her || ืฉืœื” || Shela
|-
|-
| ื™ึตืฉ ืœึธื”ึถื ื—ึธื‘ึตืจ (yes la-hem kha-ver) || yeh-sheh lah-hem kha-veh-reh || They have a friend
| Our || ืฉืœื ื• || Shelanu
|-
| Your (masc. pl.) || ืฉืœื›ื || Shelchem
|-
| Your (fem. pl.) || ืฉืœื›ืŸ || Shelchen
|-
| Their (masc./fem.) || ืฉืœื”ื/ืฉืœื”ืŸ || Shelahem/Shelhen
|}
|}


== Dialogue ==
Here's an example dialogue to illustrate the usage of possessive pronouns:
Let's look at a dialogue between two people using the verb "have":
ย 
* Person 1: ื”ืจื›ื‘ ืฉืœื™ ื”ื•ื ื™ืฉืŸ ืžืื•ื“. (Harechev sheli hu yashan me'od.) - My car is very old.
* Person 2: ื”ืจื›ื‘ ืฉืœื™ ื”ื•ื ื—ื“ืฉ ืžืื•ื“. (Harechev sheli hu chadash me'od.) - My car is very new.
ย 
In this dialogue, we see that instead of saying "yesh li harechev" (I have a car), Person 1 uses the possessive pronoun "sheli" (my) to indicate possession.


* Person 1: ื™ึตืฉ ืœึดื™ ื—ึธื‘ึตืจ (yes li kha-ver)? (Do I have a friend?)
== Interesting fact ==
* Person 2: ื›ึทึผืŸ, ื™ึตืฉ ืœึฐืšึธ ื—ึธื‘ึตืจ (kan, yes le-kha kha-ver). (Yes, you have a friend.)


== Conclusion ==
Did you know that Hebrew is written from right to left? It is the only Semitic language that is written in this direction. This unique aspect of Hebrew's orthography can be challenging for learners, but it also gives the language a distinctive look and feel.

Hebrew Grammar - How to Use "Have"

Hi Hebrew learners! ๐Ÿ˜Š
In this lesson, we will learn how to use the verb "have" in Hebrew. "Have" is a useful verb that allows us to express possession, obligation, and other situations. We will go over the conjugation of "have" in Hebrew and provide examples to illustrate its usage.

Conjugation of "Have"

In Hebrew, "have" is translated as "yesh" (ื™ึตืฉื). "Yesh" is an irregular verb, which means its conjugation pattern is different than regular verbs. Below are the conjugations of "yesh" in present tense:

Person Hebrew Pronoun Conjugation English Translation
1st singular ืื ื™ ื™ืฉ ืœื™ (Yesh li) I have
2nd singular (male) ืืชื” ื™ืฉ ืœืš (Yesh lecha) You have (masc. sing.)
2nd singular (female) ืืช ื™ืฉ ืœืš (Yesh lach) You have (fem. sing.)
3rd singular (male) ื”ื•ื ื™ืฉ ืœื• (Yesh lo) He has
3rd singular (female) ื”ื™ื ื™ืฉ ืœื” (Yesh la) She has
1st plural ืื ื—ื ื• ื™ืฉ ืœื ื• (Yesh lanu) We have
2nd plural (male) ืืชื ื™ืฉ ืœื›ื (Yesh lechem) You have (masc. pl.)
2nd plural (female) ืืชืŸ ื™ืฉ ืœื›ืŸ (Yesh lechem) You have (fem. pl.)
3rd plural ื”ื/ื”ืŸ ื™ืฉ ืœื”ื/ืœื”ืŸ (Yesh lahem/lan) They have (masc/fem)

Notice that "yesh" is usually combined with the preposition "ืœ" (le), which means "to" or "for." This is why we have "yesh li" (I have) instead of just "yesh." The object possessed, indicated by "ืœ," follows the verb.

Expressing Obligation

In Hebrew, we use "yesh" to express obligation. In this case, "yesh" is combined with the preposition "ืœ" to mean "must" or "have to." For example:

  • ืื ื™ ื—ื™ื™ื‘ ืœืœืžื•ื“ ืขื‘ืจื™ืช (Ani chayav lilmud ivrit) - I must learn Hebrew.
  • ืืชื” ื—ื™ื™ื‘ ืœื’ืžื•ืจ ืืช ื”ืขื‘ื•ื“ื” (Atah chayav ligmor et ha'avoda) - You have to finish the work.

Notice that we use the word "chayav" (ื—ื™ื™ื‘) to indicate obligation.

Possessive Pronouns

In Hebrew, we often use possessive pronouns instead of the verb "have" to indicate possession. Possessive pronouns are formed by adding a suffix to the noun. Below are the possessive pronouns in Hebrew:

English Hebrew Pronunciation
My ืฉืœื™ Sheli
Your (masc. sing.) ืฉืœืš Shelcha
Your (fem. sing.) ืฉืœืš Shelach
His ืฉืœื• Shelo
Her ืฉืœื” Shela
Our ืฉืœื ื• Shelanu
Your (masc. pl.) ืฉืœื›ื Shelchem
Your (fem. pl.) ืฉืœื›ืŸ Shelchen
Their (masc./fem.) ืฉืœื”ื/ืฉืœื”ืŸ Shelahem/Shelhen

Here's an example dialogue to illustrate the usage of possessive pronouns:

  • Person 1: ื”ืจื›ื‘ ืฉืœื™ ื”ื•ื ื™ืฉืŸ ืžืื•ื“. (Harechev sheli hu yashan me'od.) - My car is very old.
  • Person 2: ื”ืจื›ื‘ ืฉืœื™ ื”ื•ื ื—ื“ืฉ ืžืื•ื“. (Harechev sheli hu chadash me'od.) - My car is very new.

In this dialogue, we see that instead of saying "yesh li harechev" (I have a car), Person 1 uses the possessive pronoun "sheli" (my) to indicate possession.

Interesting fact

Did you know that Hebrew is written from right to left? It is the only Semitic language that is written in this direction. This unique aspect of Hebrew's orthography can be challenging for learners, but it also gives the language a distinctive look and feel.
