Ani Ohevet Blogger


Here is my very first composition for Hebrew. We were assigned a list of things we like and don't like--in response to learning the verb ohev, to like. Some people wrote stories and had complex sentence construction. I did not. I took it very literally, and wrote a list. Due to my limited vocabulary, it's not all exactly true. But it is in Hebrew, and it's mostly grammatically correct. Sorry it's out of focus. Despite my two years working in television, I apparently have yet to figure out yet how to focus a camera that has an auto-focus.

Here's a translation: "I like movies and television. I also like coke and water, but I don't like coffee or tea. I like the sea and the sun. I don't like rain, but I do like snow. I like theater and museums. I like bread, but I don't like cake. I like cities as well as books as well as restaurants."

Apparently I'm very cultured. And thanks to Paul for the far superior picture.

Just curious...what are the untrue parts?

Well, I think cake is pretty great... And I'm far more intelligent and interesting than this makes me out to be. But you all know that already.

So, how does one say, "My life is all about sitcoms" in Hebrew?

I don't need to say that in any language; I'm pretty sure everyone can just tell.
