Introduction to Hebrew Verbs

Each Hebrew verb identifies;

1.     Person (first, second or third) of the subject of the verb

2.     Gender (masculine or feminine) of the subject of the verb

3.     Number (singular or plural) of the subject of the verb

4.     Tense (perfect or imperfect) of the verb

5.     And sometimes the gender and number of the object of the verb

                                                              The infinitive form of Hebrew verbs

Like in English, it is impossible to use the infinitive form of the verb without the preceding “helping” verbs.

For instance, you cannot say “I to eat soup now”.

The correct way is “I want to eat soup now”.

The following helping verbs always come in front of an infinitive form of another verb.
