The Arabic and Hebrew languages are both Semitic languages and developed from common origins.
Yeesh so when were Arabic and Hebrew one language (central Semitic)? That must’ve a crazy long time ago
Yeah, thousands of years ago.
More than 2000 BCE
I would say.. they diverged around 5000 years ago. The other semitic dialects, maybe around 8000 years ago. And all other Afro-Asiatic languages might have diverged around 13,000 years ago.. or maybe more.
Just think about those numbers for a second. People might have spoken an Afro-Asiatic language, during the ice age!
It’s Sabado (Saturday) in my language.
Same in portuguese
In Italian it’s Sabato
In Russian subota (суббота)
@@marinachristiansen4819 In standard SerboCroatian it’s субота/subota. In standard Bulgarian it’s събота(та)/sǎbota(ta). In standard Slovenian it’s sobota.
Of course, dialects of all these languages had different words, such as: sabota(ta), sombota(ta), soubota.
Fun fact: there is a good spaghetti western movie called Sabata (starring Lee van Cleef).
It’s definitely the same in Greek, all Romance languages and some other languages that borrowed from Hebrew.
LangFocus will bring peace to the Middle East.
The ancestor language of Hebrew and Arabic is closer to Arabic
Because modern Hebrew changed so much overtime that even their alphabet is originally ancient emperor aramaic
Changes happened in both languages and there are some features that were changed in Arabic but survived in modern Hebrew, for example disguising between s1 (Sh), s2 (something between s and Sh) and s3 (s), that exists in Hebrew, south Arab languages and more, but not in Arabic.
Nope
That’s a complete lie. Old Hebrew is much more intelligible for Modern Hebrew speakers than 17th century English to modern English speakers. They can literally understand Phoenician…
👍👍👍
60% of modern Hebrew have Semitic roots, as Arabic. 30% are from Yiddish and Altdeutsch . When I began to learn Hebrew , I already spoke Arabic and Yiddish and I always said to myself : “this seems a mixture of Arabic and Yiddish written in an odd alphabet “!
30% Yiddish? That’s far too high. I would be surprised if it’s even 2%, assuming you’re talking about vocabulary.
It had some influence on the accent of Modern Hebrew though.
of course
it was by design
eliezer ben yehuda borrowed so many arabic root words for his hebrew revival project so hebrew can be spoken for daily conversations instead of just for religious context
That’s a lie. There are barely any loanwords and all of them are either slang words, or concepts that never existed in Hebrew previously.
We need honest voices for peace and so we must remind our nation leaders to act towards peace for everyone! Solidarity with the people! 🇮🇱☮️🇵🇸
The original Arab is the same as it is from long time ago but there accents in it, also there is some words have been added by people who came for trading from other countries without any permission and the Arab people used them 😂. Sry but Hebrew doesn’t have the depth in the words and meanings like the Arabic also the Arabic older than Hebrew and it can’t be descended from Hebrew
What about ancient Hebrew, though?
Basically the only difference in the words I mentioned is that shabat would be shabath.
@Langfocus I was thinking more broadly. As in how similar they sounded. Didn’t ancient Hebrew develop BEFORE Arabic though?
Amen is not an Arabic word .
It’s “Sabtu” in Indonesian/Bahasa Indonesia
And Sabat for Sabbath.
Funny how Palestinian Arabic and Israeli Hebrew are just close language siblings but their people are the ACTUAL real siblings who fight , argue and have drama with each other.
Global languages have only four principles.
Do you knows these?
Words have 2.
Word order has 2. ㅎㅎㅎ
Most Palestinians have Jewish blood
