No, official language here is Arabic, and English is teached in schools from the 1st grade

Hebrew is not taught in schools here, and who want to learn it can take an elective course of Hebrew in university, or register for an Institute of Language Teaching.

There are people here who speak Hebrew, but not a large number.

No, most Palestinians speak Palestinian Arabic, which is a subgroup of Levantine Arabic. In Gaza, some people speak a dialect that is closer to Egyptian Arabic or Sinai Peninsula Arabic.

There are Palestinians who speak Hebrew as a second language, particularly those who work or have worked in Israel.


Hebrew tends to be quite easy to learn for speakers of Arabic. The reverse is not true (Hebrew speakers tend to find Arabic challenging).
