Some feel the Sheva vowel should be left for intermediate Hebrew. Some teachers simplify the Sheva by teaching: 1) The Sheva makes the "EH" sound at the beginning of a word; 2) The Sheva at the end of a word is silent; and, The Sheva in the middle of a word is mostly silent. ............ But, if you can find the syllables in a Hebrew word you can usually identify whether to use the "EH" sound or ignore the vowel. LOOK FOR THE SYLLABLE!!!!

Instructions: 1) Go through today's post explaining the Sheva. There are several words in this assignment that use the Sheva vowel. 2) Read this assignment from left to right, as you would English. 3)If you cannot get through this go back and review your vowels using flash cards.
