What is the plural of you in Hebrew?

Answer 1

First, a caution: Hebrew is a language of exceptions to every rule.

Masculine nouns: add the ending " - EEM" to the noun.

Feminine nouns: add the ending " - OTE" to the noun.

Of course, you have to know which nouns are masculine and which are feminine. That's another

whole subject.

Answer 2

You single male person: "ah-TAH"

You single female person: "AHT"

You several male people: "ah-TEM"

You several female people: "ah-TEN"

These only apply as the subject of the sentence, as in "You are cool. You came home.", etc.

For the objects of verbs, such as "I like you. Who are you ? I'll call you.", that's another whole matter,
which I'm not qualified to deal with. It's probably more than you were looking for anyway.

Answer 3

There is no Hebrew word for "are". It just depends on the sentence.

The Hebrew word for "you" depends. Here are some options:

masculine singular, subject pronoun = atah (אתה)

feminine singular, subject pronoun = aht (את)

masculine plural, subject pronoun = atem (אתם)

feminine plural, subject pronoun = aten (אתן)

To make the object form (to you, for you, etc), it is a suffix that is attached to the preposition. For example:

to you (masculine singular) = lecha (לך)

to you (feminine singular) = lach (לך)

Answer 4

It depends on what preposition precedes the word "you" or if it's a subject pronoun.

If someone says "chag sameach" (happy holiday) to you, the answer would be:

masculine plural: gam lachem (גם לכם)

feminine plural: gam lachen (גם לכן)

If someone says "you're a jerk", the answer would be:

masculine plural: atem gam ken (אתם גם כן)

feminine plural: aten gam ken (אתן גם כן)
