Living abroad for any period of time can be intimidating, especially if you don’t know the local language fluently.

Here at Masa Israel we understand the struggle and therefore we came up with 8 words/phrases that will make your Masa Israel journey a smooth ride. Oh and not only will you know the local slang, but Israelis will think you are literally a local.

 

Let’s get started with our first local Hebrew lesson:

 

1. Achi/ Achoti = Brother/Sister

A.k.a. Bro, Dawg, Homie, Girl, Gurrrrl, etc…

 

2. B’emet = Really?


A.ka. For real tho?

 

3. Mesiba = Party

 

4. Motzash = After Shabbat

 

5. Mehamem = Gorgeous

 

6. Metzuyan = Excellent

 

7. Sababa = Cool

 

8. Yalla = Let’s go!


A.ka. Hurry, Get Moving
