What Hebrew sounds like to foreigners; Rosh Hashanah greetings from Canada(in the end of video)

In this video I start by letting people listen a clip of Hebrew, with audio only, to test if they can recognize Hebrew. Then I showed the subjects the video as hint, so the subjects can see the people speaking Hebrew and Hebrew scripts. Will they recognize Hebrew? watch the video and find out!
In my previous video about Hebrew I used a recording of the Bible in Biblical Hebrew. I did that because it was a Librivox recording, since all Librivox recordings are in the public domain, I could be sure I am not risking copyright infringement.
I should have known that something from thousands of years ago would be nowhere near modern Hebrew and I am sorry about that.
The video with natural modern Hebrew I used in this video is recommended to me by AbadGorilla. Thank You!
Thank you all for watching and taking the time to read the description.
I wish all of you celebrating Rosh Hashanah happy new year 5775!

My name is Shunfu Sha. I make videos about languages, mainly English speakers' recognition and impression of foreign languages. I am also planning to do vlogs about language and culture.

NO, it was the other way around. Yiddish was influenced by German, Russian and other eastern European languages and Ancient Hebrew. There used to be about a dozen Jewish Languages influenced by Hebrew band the local Language. Judeo-Spanish is Ladino, Judeo-Tat was spoken in the Caucasus Mountains. Ancient Hebrew had a vocabulary of about 7,000 words, but had to be modified to reflect changes in technology and life. Now there are abut 75,000 words or compound words that were also influenced by Aramaic, Arabic and English.

The difference is that the Hebrew you've heard was coming from Ashkenazi jews , which contributes only 30% of the Jews in Israel .. When you'll listen to Sephardic or Mizrahi jews talking Hebrew , it will sound very much like Arabic , as they speak much slower , and with much more breathing in each word . You know what , just type Rabbi amnon Itzhak , he is a yemmanite jew , and it sounds complitely different

You don't know the Statistics in Israel , so you just watch KZfaq , and think that all the jews in Israel are Ashekenazi , meaning that you are either a big ignorant , or maybe even a liar ... 70% of the jews in Israel are Mizrahi and Sephardic Jews from Yemen , Ethiopia , Lebanon , Iraq , Syria , Morocco , Algeria , Libya , Egypt , Iran , Turkey , Azerbaijan , the Republic of Georgia , Spain , india , and Afghanistan .... The Ashkenazi have control of the money , but are the minority in numbers... Only 2 cities have an Ashkenazi majority , which are Tel aviv and Bat yam ,,, all the rest look like if you are in an Arab country ... Arabs are a mixed race also , as your forefathers have conquered so many places in the Islamic Conquest , where Arab men , have taken foreign women as their wife's , from Spain to Russia , and from youguslavia to Mongolia .. So arabs are filled with Ashekenazi blood , which Ashkenaz by the way was a human , and a Decendent of Japheth , son of Noah , so many Arabs are not even Semites from Shem ... Truth hurts...

I find it very weird that they thought it's a Germanic language. Most of the people I met in Europe told me Hebrew sounds like French to them and it does. Maybe because they are Canadian so they all have basic French knowledge.

unitrvl I agree it sounds french to me sometimes. Except less throaty sounds. I use to think it sounded more French but I started watching more French and Israeli films and could start telling the difference.

If you have any basic french knowledge you would know for sure that is not french. I had french in highschool 15 yrs ago and i would have known thats not french. If they're canadian shame on them

I also encountered people who confused Hebrew for French. They say it's because of the pronounciation of R. OK, but the vowels in both languages are soooo different. I don't get it.

@eliad6543 4 жыл бұрын
I'm a bit confused by the whole "foreign sounding" part because in terms of phonology, Hebrew *did* share many sounds with Arabic and those sounds would be very unfamiliar to English speakers, but ever since it was revived a lot of the old pronunciation kinda went away as the language was again spoken and therefore underwent change (and also, Jews from Europe who learned Hebrew as a second language after it was revived ignored a lot of the unfamiliar sounds and just gave their best approximate, which got passed down). So I'm kinda confused by the "look at all those weird sounds". Unless it's a Mizrahi/Yemeni accent, the only two sounds that aren't in English are /x/ (latinized as "ch", isn't in English but is in most other European languages such as Spanish, German and Russian, a.k.a. "the kh sound") and /t͡s/ which is basically just t and s but at the same time rather than in short sequence, can be latinized as "tz" as well, and the Arabic equivalent is the back s (ص). So like, I get that there's like 2 unfamiliar sounds but it's strange to me how much that gets noticed when there's Arabic chilling there with at least 7 of them
@Bilech34 4 жыл бұрын
Guess those two sounds (especially the "kh" one) are the strongest ones, and are enough to associate Hebrew with Arabic somehow. As a Hebrew speaker, and a person familiar with Arabic, it's hard for me to understand, but I suppose that's how it works for them.
@akd7576 4 жыл бұрын
The "kh" sound in hebrew is nothing like "kh" in European languages becaue in these languages it's very soft and not as down in the throat as it is in hebrew . the hebrew kh actually sound exactly the same as the arabic kh خ , in both languages this sound sounds like someone is trying to spit and it's very noticeable to foreigners
@eliad6543 4 жыл бұрын
@@akd7576 "Trying to spit" is a very nice description xD As far as i'm aware though, Arabic خ *isn't* usually transcribed as "kh", because خ is the same sound as Ashkenazi Hebrew כ,ח and Mizrahi כ. The خ is the same sound as Russian х or the "ch" in "Loch Ness", so *not* the other "kh" that only got preserved (within Semitic languages, of course) in Arabic and Yemeni (and Mizrahi?) Hebrew. That other one, which is different and probably fits the "trying to spit" description better, is Arabic ح (without the dot!) and Yemeni Hebrew ח. This is the one that got lost from all other dialects of Hebrew in the revival process, doesn't appear in languages like Scottish Gaelic or Russian (at least not regularly, not as a letter), and the same one that's consistently transcribed as "kh". IPA for the first one (خ) is "x" or "χ". while for the second one (ح) it's sometimes argued upon but normally "ħ". Hopefully this cleared some stuff up, I could bring example words from both languages if something still isn't clear but note that I speak Ashkenazi Hebrew so I don't pronounce the 2nd at all in daily speech :P
@akd7576 4 жыл бұрын
@Eliad654 The arabic خ is always transcribed as kh , i've never seen different transcription to this sound ح is a different sound and can't be transcribed as kh. while ح sounds foreign , it doesn't sound as guttural as the خ kh sound in arabic and hebrew . come to think of the "Trying to spit" description to this sound ,i think it does make sense beacue when people try to spit they make the sound خ , not ح And especially that arabs and israelis tend to pronounce this sound from the very back of the throat it makes it sound like that in these languages
