About the Event
On May 27th, join us at the Jerusalem Purple House to learn about the linguistic and historical commonalities between Hebrew and Arabic. The workshop will take place from 19:00-20:30 and will begin with a talk on the fascinating and sometimes surprising historical, linguistic and political relationships between Hebrew and Arabic. Through interactive language games and discussions, we will seek to illuminate just how much is shared between Arabic and Hebrew.
If you are a Hebrew speaker learning Arabic, an Arabic speaker learning Hebrew, or if you're learning both languages - this workshop will show you that you know more than you think you know and give you tools to apply your knowledge of one language when learning the other.
