hebrajski

Hebrajski, also known as Ivrit, is the official language of Israel and one of the official languages of the Palestinian National Authority. It is a Semitic language, closely related to Arabic, and is spoken by over 9 million people worldwide, primarily in Israel and the Palestinian territories. The language has a rich history, with its earliest known form dating back to the 10th century BCE.

The Hebrew language is written using the Hebrew alphabet, which is an abjad script, meaning it only represents consonants. Vowels are often indicated by diacritical marks or are implied from the context. The language has a complex system of grammar, including a system of verbal inflection that indicates tense, aspect, mood, and voice.

Hebrew is known for its literary tradition, with the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible) being one of the most significant works. It has also contributed to the development of modern literature, philosophy, and science. The language has been influenced by other languages, including Aramaic, Greek, and Arabic, as well as by the languages of the Jewish diaspora.

In modern times, Hebrew has been revitalized as a spoken language, with efforts to promote its use in education and daily life. It is taught in schools and universities around the world, and there are ongoing efforts to preserve and promote the language's cultural heritage. The State of Israel has made Hebrew the sole official language, although Arabic is widely spoken in the Palestinian territories and English is commonly used in international business and academia.
