Can Hebrew and Arabic speakers understand each other? I answer that question, and take a look at some similarities and differences between Hebrew and Arabic, sister languages of the Semitic Language family. • For lots of great Arabic lessons for students of all levels, visit ArabicPod101: http://bit.ly/arabicpod101.

But they have many similarities in grammar and vocabulary. • If you isolate individual words, many are very similar and clearly cognate words (meaning they're equivalent words that developed from the same root in an earlier Semitic language). For example, the word for dog is kelev in Hebrew and kalb in Arabic. Some words are exactly the same: yad means hand in both Hebrew and Arabic, and dam means blood in both. • In terms morphology, or how words are formed, Hebrew and Arabic use almost the same system of roots and templates as I call them: word patterns consisting of certain consonants and vowels that the three consonant root can be placed. The word's meaning is determined by the root's core meaning, and the specific meaning that is added to it by the word template. • Anyone who speaks either language well will have a huge advantage when learning the other. But they will still have to learn the other language before they'll be able to understand or use it. • / langfocus • / langfocus • / langfocus • http://langfocus.com
