ANSWER #2

Hine mah tov

Behold how good (masculine)

uMahNayim

and how pleasing (femine)

shevet achim gam yachad

if brothers (people) could sit together in unity

(in Hebrew, the masculine also includes the feminine when a group of people are concerned)

Yachad is from the word Yachid which means absolute unity and has a higher connotation than just peace and harmony.

The question is asked in the Talmud, "How can you describe HaShem (God)" and the reply is "Yachid" (absolute unity)

It is for this reason that the word "Yachad" has a higher connotation in that it also implies unity with the Creator and not just with other people. Kind of like an elevated level of universal consciousness.

What does hinei mah tov mean?

It's the "hinei" that's the problem. We hear it translated most often as "Behold", which is unfortunate, because that word is no longer used in English conversation, and the consequence of that is that nobody has any idea of its visceral meaning. To me, "Hinei" is somewhere between "Look !" and "Wow !" depending on the context. That makes the meaning of this phrase: "Look ! How good ...", or "Wow ! How great ...". =============================================== By the way ... this question brings up an important point that I just learned this year at Passover, and can't resist sharing here. It's on the subject of the so-called Four "Questions" or "Ma Nishtana" of the seder. Every year, we hear discussions of what are the questions all about, what do they mean, why are the kids asking, and what are the answers. All of this hangs on the word "ma" as in "Ma nishtana" ... always translated as "Why ?". Exceptabove, in this Wiki question ! "Hinei ma tov ..." clearly means "Wow ! HOW good ! ...". When Bilam exclaimed "Ma tovu ohalecha ...", he clearly meant "HOW good ! ...", and when David sang "Ma gadlu ma'asecha ...", he was clearly exclaiming "HOW wonderful !". So maybe, at the seder, what the kids are really marveling at is "Ma nishtana ...", "HOW different this night is from all the others !". That's all I wanted to point out.

What is the shorest word in English language?

Words are a combination of letters to create a meaning, so 'a' is not a word. Neither is 'I'. There are many two letter words in the English language, such as 'as' or 'or' (XD) or 'me' or 'ma' or 'OP' etc.
