You'll start with the basics--like simple grammar and the Hebrew alphabet--before you move onto commonly used phrases and small-talk. This book gets you used to the more unfamiliar sounds of the Hebrew language--like gutturals--that English speakers aren't used to seeing. It will also help you: Recognize what Hebrew has in common with English (and what it doesn't), learn to read from right to left, get a handle on the basics of Hebrew grammar, and pick up your first few phrases, and discover commonly used expressions that help you get around, shop, eat, and have fun.
