Elementary Hebrew I

Undergraduate catalogue

This course is designed for students with little or no previous exposure to modern Hebrew. Over the fall semester, you will learn the Hebrew alphabet and develop skills in reading, writing, speaking, and comprehension. The class will be conducted primarily in Hebrew to maximize immersion, with English used for clarification when necessary. You will engage with songs, artwork, literature, newspapers, and Princeton's Geniza lab, as well as other audiovisual materials, to deepen your cultural understanding of Hebrew and life in Israel.
