Recognizing Patterns in Hebrew,
By
This review is from: A Step by Step Guide to Modern Hebrew (Paperback)
This is the best book that I have come across for learning the structure of the Hebrew language. It has helped me to recognize patterns in unfamiliar words and thereby create my own sentences. I realised that many other parts of the language start from verbs.
The book starts with the menorah diagram showing the seven verb groups (or Binyanim). It then builds on this to give a simple, systematic way of learning the different tenses and even the nouns based on the same root. It needs to be used alongside other books which help with vocabulary, sentence structure and use of words. PeterA Step by Step Guide to Modern Hebrew

Hebrew made logical,
This review is from: A Step by Step Guide to Modern Hebrew (Paperback)
When I found "A Step by Step Guide to Modern Hebrew", it was like a breath of fresh air. It is so cleanly, simply and methodically laid out it makes Hebrew seem accessible and simple! It moves logically from the very beginning alphabet through more complex structures.
It is very clear and well taught, excellent for English speakers. It also has great charts, tables and self correcting exercises. You literally can take yourself thru them, "step by step".

A Step by Step Guide to Modern Hebrew,
By Judy (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Step by Step Guide to Modern Hebrew (Paperback)
This is the book I have been searching for. I had given up hope of ever understanding the Hebrew verb system, but thanks to this book, I finally get it! As the title says, this is a step by step guide; by following each step, the reader learns to identify and form the verbs in each 'binyan'. A unique and extremely helpful feature is having exercises with answers; that was a big motivator for me to try the book. Another nice feature is the clear, easy to read font. Most of all, I think that the authors really understand the needs of the English speaking Hebrew learner. A terrific book.
