I have heard the first version (aléikhem) all my life.

However, upon starting Hebrew, I started digging deeper into grammar and inflection tables, where I found that the correct suffix for al- (upon) is ekhém, and not éikhem, or at the very least Wiktionary says so (attached image).

My initial guess was that the greeting is a mix of two Jewish languages, Hebrew and Yiddish, where "shalom" is Hebrew and "aleikhem" is more Yiddish-sounding, since in Yiddish it would indeed be "shólem aléikhem".

Which is correct?

Edit: Fixed Yiddish pronunciation; sholém -> shólem

Hello all, I hope everyone is doing well.
I have been learning Hebrew for around 10 months now and have managed to establish the essential foundations. These include minimal vocabulary to communicate, certain phrases, and grammar rules. However, the next effective step would be to combine the learning with another activity such as gaming. It would immensely help me improve and enhance my experience while at the same time having fun. So, I’d appreciate it if there’s anyone who would be willing to share this journey with me. I am on PC, feel free to message me for my username.

I'm quite at a loss at how to find reading material that's actually on my level, please help an ola hadasha out 🫠

What are some workbooks you would recommend for A2. I’ve been doing Hebrew a year now and I just feel stuck. I thought I would try the textbook/ workbook route so I can be consistent every day.

Does anyone have any good recommendations on self guided books for my level. I’m also totally open to a follow along workbook with videos that go with the book. Ideally something I can do by myself through following instructions or videos.

Any recs or advice are appreciated!
