Teach Yourself to Read Hebrew

What I like about this book is that it's easy.
The reader is shown how to write Hebrew letters as well as the sounds associated with it.

The authors explain the differences between Hebrew and English.

They suggest using flash-cards or a similar memory tool. I am approaching memorization by writing the letters and the associated English sound and frequently referring to those papers.

I recommend "Teach Yourself to Read Hebrew" as a basic starter book.

This book really helped me learn the Hebrew Aleph-Bet quickly. I finished the book in a matter of days and could actually read words in Hebrew. Please note that this book is very, very basic. You will need another book after reading this one that covers vocabulary, parts of speech, etc. The one I purchased after I finished this one was Teach Yourself Biblical Hebrew by Sarah Nicholson isbn:0071434623 Teach Yourself Biblical Hebrew Complete Course (Book Only) (Teach Yourself). The book by Sarah Nicholson is good but note that examples of the vowel sounds that are given in it are in a British Accent. Another good resource is http://www.hebrew4christians.com.

This book had me understaning Hebrew in know time at all. It breaks everything down, so that the reader will have no problem following this book. I would say this book is a good buy for those who wish to learn to read this language.

Every page you open in this book is self revealing. And you will be amazed as you would in minutes read Hebrew letters and make sentences with them too. Infact, this is just what you need in studying hebrew for beginers.

I AM LEARNING TO READ HEBREW!!!!!!!! Out of all the book/tapes on hebrew this one is the best.
