Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis consists mainly of an explanatory description of the systematic interrelations between the so-called conjugations (Binyanim) and certain general semantic and syntactic properties of verbs in Colloquial Israeli Hebrew. The description itself is preceded by a general introductory part, which gives a definition for the term Colloquial Israeli Hebrew (1.1.), spells out the transcription used in the thesis (1.2.1,), notes on some morphophonemic properties of conjugations and stems (1.2.2.) and gives some details on the research methods used (1.4.; 1.5.), addition, this part includes a critique of traditional and current approaches to the problem of the Binyanim (l.3.) and a concise exposition of the theoretical model which the description follows, a model based on notions and notations borrowed from the T.G. and/Predicate Calculus (1.6.). The description pressuposes a classification of the verbs according to various Basic Predication types (this concept, which is roughtly equivalent to basic syntactic patterns, is introduced in 1.6.) into which they fit. This classification is incorporated in the index of roots appended to the thesis. Most (occurrences of) conjugations are said to be "basic", that is roughtly "associated with B.P.-types on which no operation has been performed" (2.1.5; 2.10.). Some are said to be "derived", that is "associated with B.P.-types on which operations such as converse-derivation (1.6.9; 2.10.5) reflexive-instantiation (2.10.1.) conjunction and reciprocal instantiation (2.10.2) etc. have been performed". Basic (occurrences of) conjugations are characterized as follows: Each group of conjugations is associated with a class of roots which defines both middle-intransitive ("non-ergative") and active-transitive ("ergative") B.P.-types (1.6.5.; 2.1.) and in which most roots share certain combinations of meaning- features. (The elements in each such combination are taken from a small stock. Some of them are redundant (2.1.4)). The conjugations occuring in non-ergative B.P.-types realise the marked term of the "Aktionsart" category ingressive vs. non- ingressive (1.3.3; 2.1.3). The Aktionsart contrast neutralizes in the environments of certain classes of roots, defined semantically (2.5 - 2.7). Departures from the above scheme have usually a simple explanation (2.4; 2.5; 2.6.).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Language Contact and the Development of Modern Hebrew is a first rigorous attempt by scholars of Hebrew to evaluate the syntactic impact of the various languages with which Modern Hebrew was in contact during its formative years. Twenty-four different innovative syntactic constructions of Modern Hebrew are analysed, and shown to originate in previous stages of Hebrew, which, since the third century CE, solely functioned as a scholarly and liturgical language. The syntactic changes in the constructions are traced to the native languages of the first Modern Hebrew learners, and later to further reanalysis by the first generation of native speakers. The contents of this volume was also published as a special double issue of Journal of Jewish Languages, 3: 1-2 (2015).

Book excerpt: "The revival of Hebrew in Israel during the last century is a unique phenomenon: a language used for over 1700 years by Jews around the world solely in liturgy or writing came alive as a spoken, everyday language used for all purposes. Although those spearheading the movement to revive Hebrew tried to impose the norms of classical Hebrew on the rapidity evolving language, they were, in many respects, unsuccessful in this effort. Adapting to the circumstances in which it was used, Modern Hebrew developed independently, reflecting the previous linguistic background of the speakers, foreign influences and natural linguistic evolution. Modern Hebrew has taken its own unique course as revealed through its phonology, morphology, syntax, and lexical structure. This book examines the unique features of this dynamic language."--Book cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Story of Hebrew explores the extraordinary hold that Hebrew has had on Jews and Christians, who have invested it with a symbolic power far beyond that of any other language in history. Preserved by the Jews across two millennia, Hebrew endured long after it ceased to be a mother tongue, resulting in one of the most intense textual cultures ever known. Hebrew was a bridge to Greek and Arab science, and it unlocked the biblical sources for Jerome and the Reformation. Kabbalists and humanists sought philosophical truth in it, and Colonial Americans used it to shape their own Israelite political identity. Today, it is the first language of millions of Israelis. A major work of scholarship, The Story of Hebrew is an unforgettable account of what one language has meant and continues to mean.

Download or read book Language Contact and Lexical Enrichment in Israeli Hebrew written by G. Zuckermann and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-11-04 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Israeli Hebrew is a spoken language, 'reinvented' over the last century. It has responded to the new social and technological demands of globalization with a vigorously developing multisourced lexicon, enriched by foreign language contact. In this detailed and rigorous study, the author provides a principled classification of neologisms, their semantic fields and the roles of source languages, along with a sociolinguistic study of the attitudes of 'purists' and ordinary native speakers in the tension between linguistic creativity and the preservation of a distinct language identity.
