Hebrew

Hebrew is a Semitic language with ancient origins, primarily spoken by Jewish communities and the State of Israel today. It evolved from classical texts like the Hebrew Bible and transitioned from a liturgical language to a living language in the modern era. Hebrew has a unique writing system using consonant-based characters and a rich system of roots and patterns that shape meaning. It plays a central role in Jewish culture, religion, and identity, and is recognized internationally as the official language of Israel. The language reflects both deep historical traditions and contemporary linguistic innovation.
