The Grammar of Modern Hebrew Lewis Glinert
Publisher:

The grammar of Hebrew is fairly typical of Semitic languages: Many words consist of three consonants separated by vowels. Modern Israeli Hebrew grammar is actually a blend of formats and paradigms, mainly taken from archaic and rabbinic Hebrew, but also from the Romance, Slavic, Anglo-Saxon and German languages. It's comparable to Shakespeare and our English. Hebrew was revived as a spoken language during the late 19th and early 20th century as Modern Hebrew. One learns the diphthongs on the front-end of such studies because it is a spoken language. It is no mystery why the Artscroll Siddur, Chumash and Talmud are .. They are so well done, in fact, that those with more background envied the modern typeface and layout — and the Hebrew-only editions of the Artscroll Siddur and Chumash are the result. Another good source if you want to read is Reading Academic Hebrew, not fully vocalized, but otherwise great. Bavli is a special case since it uses a very small vocabulary that is pretty easy to learn and access – even without proper Aramaic grammar. Glinert's grammar of modern Hebrew is more accessible than Rosen, but it does not have any dialogues. It replaced Arabic, Yiddish, Russian, and a variety of other languages spoken by Jews who emigrated to Israel. As far as basic grammar and the most common vocabulary (except what has been pulled from Arabic), modern Hebrew is extremely close to biblical Hebrew. We're pleased to announce the availability of A Grammar of Biblical Hebrew (Revised edition, 2006), by Paul Joüon, S.J. Modern Hebrew grammars recognizes more vowel-like sounds via diphthongs. This modern Hebrew grammar is 772 pages long and is considered one of the top standard references.
