Now that each of us "knows" how to pronounce , let's try some more reading!

(nevet) - Means sprout.

(na-vii) - Means prophet, as in Eliyahu hanavi, Elijah the prophet.

(negev) - Means south.

(ganav) - Means thief.

(noded) - Means wanderer.

(migbah) - Means goal. Which of course is to finish the Aleph-Bet and read Hebrew!

(cham) - Means hot.

(bag) — Well, it means something in English, obviously. In Hebrew it means "delicacy." Just thought you'd like to know.

ge-eh - Means proud.
