Hebrew is different. Unlike English it is read and written from right to left. The Hebrew alphabet has twenty-two letters all of which are consonants. Vowels consist of dots and dashes below and beside the consonants. Hebrew does not have capital letters. Five Hebrew letters have a different form when they appear at the end of the word. So you need to remember that Hebrew is different from English. But that doesn’t mean it’s harder; in fact it’s much simpler in many ways, as we will see.
