I sometimes have to know how to say a lot of different words for h.w and if anyone knows them here it would be a big help!
(i cant use an online dictionary cuz i don’t have hebrew on my keyboard)
such as…
“_____”
how abt a small hebrew englis dictionary? You’d get answers quicker than waiting for posts to go through here.
I’m not sure what you mean by “I don’t have Hebrew on my keyboard.”
Does that mean you haven’t installed Hebrew or that you don’t have the letters on the physical keys?
If it’s the first case, just install the Hebrew. If it’s the second, type out a chart of where the letters are on the keys.
brotheroffurs: You could use google translate Hebrew which has a Hebrew keyboard, http://translate.google.com/?tl=iw&q=undefined
I would NOT relay on the google translate for my hw it isnt always right, i checked!!!
Firstly, how to you say gezaira shava?
a better website is mikledet.com
did you mean “back axle”? how about back axle kodmi”?don’t believe me?look it up! Hebrew is very original!
yaff80…
That’s not a word, it’s a concept. It can’t be translated in a word or two. It would take a sentence or two.
tajikpashut: How do you say front axle in Tajik?
Some things cannot be translated from one word to another. A gezaira shava is something you learn by comparing two ideas that might be different, but have a commonality that makes it apparent that one concept is equivalent in some manner to the other. Maybe that’s it – a conceptual equivalence…?
ItcheSrulik;I think tajik means villager in yiddish,btw are jews even allowed in Tajikistan?
Gezera Shava:
-a decree of equivalence
-verbal analogy
-analogy by common term
How do you translate “EIN HOCHI NAMI”?
From morfix:
???? ???
(talmudic) analogy, inference, syllogism
the funniest google translate i ever got was from an ikea page showing buffets and pantry closets which are called miznonim and aronot. the google translate mis read miznonim as mamzarim and it read, i kid you not, Coffins for your illegitimate children!!!
Analogy, that’s it.
