UNIT 5 - Binyan Pi'el

‫בניין פיעל‬

Moving from Infinitive Form to Past Tense

‫ְל‬In Binyan Pi'el we omit the infinitive form prefix , while

maintaining the sound pattern of the infinitive form:

‫ ַד ֵבר‬ ‫ְל ַד ֵבר‬

We then change the sound pattern to match the name of the
Binyan – Pi'el:

…A...E...  …EE…E

To this basic "kernel" we add the corresponding suffixes, according
to the pronouns. As an example, let’s use the verb:

to talk – ‫ְל ַד ֵבר‬
‫ ִד ֵבר‬‫ ַד ֵבר‬ ‫ְל ַד ֵבר‬

Pronoun  ‫ ּו‬ ‫ ה ֵהם‬ ‫ִהיא‬  ‫הּוא‬
Suffix
‫ּו‬+‫ה ִד ְבר‬+‫ִד ְב ָר‬ ‫ִד ֵבר‬
Suffix  ‫ִד ֵבר‬
‫ִד ְב ָרה ִד ְברּו‬

*Note that the kernel for ‫ הּוא‬is different than the kernel for ‫ ִהיא‬and ‫ ֵהם‬.

For the second chart, we use a slightly different “kernel”:

Pronoun  ‫ ֶתם‬ ‫ַא ֶתם‬ ‫נּו‬ ‫ֲא ַנ ְחנּו‬ ‫ ְת‬ ‫ַא ְת‬ ‫ ָת‬ ‫ַא ָתה‬ ‫ ִתי‬ ‫ֲא ִני‬
Suffix

Suffix  ‫ ֶתם‬+‫ִד ַבר‬ ‫נּו‬+‫ ְת ִד ַבר‬+‫ִד ַבר‬ ‫ ָת‬+‫ ִתי ִד ַבר‬+‫ִד ַבר‬
‫ִד ַב ְר ֶתם‬ ‫ִד ַב ְר ְת ִד ַב ְרנּו‬ ‫ִד ַב ְר ִתי ִד ַב ְר ָת‬
