more Hebrew!
Nov. 12th, 2012 02:44 pmI was going to say that I should just learn enough Hebrew to be able to read a dictionary usefully, but then it occurred to me that this request requires at least some knowledge of grammar, which is probably more Hebrew-learning than I can really spare the time for at present. (Though the main point still stands, which is that learning the alphabet would be a handy thing for me to do.)
Anyway. Point being, I need more assistance from the Hebrew-speaking members of my audience. How would you say "those sent forth"? As in (and yes, I'm getting my terminology from Wikipedia, here), the plural of the Qal passive participle for whatever the nearest verb is for "to send forth."
In other words, I'm trying to end up with a word along the lines of pĕrûshîm, but with a different verb. Any suggestions?
