  1. Berachah Bible InstituteHebrew Grammar I Chapter 8: Hebrew Pronouns

  2. Hebrew Pronouns BBIHebrew Grammar I Section 8.1 – Introduction Some terminology • Antecedent – The word the pronoun refers back to • Personal Pronoun – He hit the ball • Demonstrative Pronoun – That isthe ball In our class, we’ll refer to demonstrative pronouns as adjectives. We’ll see why in just a moment. • Relative Pronoun – He hit the ball that I threw • Interrogative Pronoun – What is his name?

  3. Hebrew Pronouns BBIHebrew Grammar I Section 8.2 – Independent Personal Pronouns • Independent – Stands on its own; not attached • Personal – Stands for a person, whether 1st, 2nd, or 3rd • I, we • You • he/she/it/they • Like English, no gender for 1st person • Unlike English, gender for all 2nd and 3rd person pronouns • Unlike English, no neuter third person “it”

  4. Hebrew Pronouns BBIHebrew Grammar I Section 8.3 – IPP Paradigm Not easy, but must memorize this chart:

  5. Hebrew Pronouns BBIHebrew Grammar I Section 8.4 – Use of IPP Often in “noun clauses”” • Supply a “to be” verb • See examples on page 71 Sometimes in “verbal clauses” • In English, you usually cannot use a verb without an explicit subject. • In Spanish, you can. “I” “You” • In Hebrew, you can as well. ? “ate ice cream” “We” • So, IPP are sometimes [cf. §8.13] used with verbs for special emphasis (see next example) Comiste helado = Tu comiste helado “Ya’ll” • T.l.k'_a' !m,v,Þw" vb;²d>W tl,soô “He” “She”

  6. Hebrew Pronouns BBIHebrew Grammar I Section 8.4 – Use of IPP (continued) and we will listen, with us you Speak! h['m'_v.nIw> WnM'Þ[i hT'îa;-rBeD: God with us speak but [let] not ~yhiÞl{a/ WnM'²[i rBEïd:y>-la;w> Exod 20:19

  7. Hebrew Pronouns BBIHebrew Grammar I Section 8.5 – Demonstrative Pronouns “They may be used either as adjectives or as pronouns” (pg. 71) – somewhat confusing? • Strange to say that a pronoun may be used as a pronoun but may not. • Adjectives may be used in several different ways: • Attributive – The red ball • Substantive – Red is a color • Predicate – The ball is red What they mean is it may be used as an attributive adjective, the other two uses of adjectives being more “noun-like” • Easier to say that demonstrative pronouns are used much like adjectives.

  12. Hebrew Pronouns BBIHebrew Grammar I Section 8.7 – Use of Demonstratives Examples to Come! Nothing new to learn! • As we said, much like adjectives • When an adjective or demonstrative pronoun functions attributively, it follows the modified noun and agrees with it in gender, number, and definiteness. • When a demonstrative pronoun functions substantively it precedes the noun and agrees with it in gender and number but not definiteness. This is similar to how predicate adjectives are used. • A few differences! • Note predicate adjective use corresponds to substantive pronoun use • Unlike predicate adjectives, substantive pronouns never follow noun

  13. Hebrew Pronouns BBIHebrew Grammar I Section 8.8 – Relative Pronoun A relative clause is a dependent clause that begins with a relative pronoun and modifies a noun. In English, there are three relative pronouns:1) Who2) That3) Which In Hebrew, there is only one: rv,a]
