Includes 24 sixty-minute audio CD discs, plus a 552-page textbook. This course is designed to teach the learner to speak and read Modern Hebrew, the ordinary, informal speech of ed ucated native Israelis. It is not intended as a text for the study of the Old Testament or other Hebrew literature. The course starts by training the learner in the sounds and pronunciation of Hebrew. From the start the Hebrew spelling is placed alongside written transcriptions designed to help the learner to listen. In subsequent lessons instruction incorporates guided imitation, repetition, memorizations, pattern and response drills, and conversation. Throughout the course the emphasis is on unaccented, conversational spoken Hebrew, although reading and writing skills are acquired as study progresses. The text includes a 15 -page glossary and a section on the Hebrew alphabet. If you really want to learn Hebrew thoroughly, this course is a must. This is a Foreign Service Institute (FSI) course.
