Unit 7       9                                   Unit 7, Track 2

We are now getting ready for an acquaintance with Israelis.
There are usually 3 typical questions that people ask.

"What's your name?"
"How old are you?"
"Where are you from?"

Since we have already dealt with numbers till 100, this range will
probably cover your age (at least during this first trip).

            Question: "How Old are You?"

English                  PHONETIC                                    ‫ִע ְב ִרית‬

We can use the age structure with people's names.

Example:

Moshe is 25 – MOSHE BEN ESRIM VE'KHAMESH
Sara is 21 – SARA BAT ESRIM VE'AKHAT
