Questions & Answers about הבנק יזכה את בעל הכרטיס בתנאי שהאימות יצליח.
Here יזכה means will credit or will grant credit to.
This is not the everyday sense of זכה as to merit or to deserve. In financial or formal language, the verb לזכות can mean to credit someone’s account or to give someone a credit/refund.
So in this sentence, הבנק יזכה את בעל הכרטיס means that the bank will give credit to the cardholder, not that the bank itself will somehow deserve the cardholder.
יזכה is:
- future tense
- third person masculine singular
- from the verb לזכות
It matches הבנק, which is grammatically masculine singular, so יזכה means the bank will credit.
את marks a definite direct object.
In Hebrew, when the direct object is definite, you usually put את before it. Here, the object is בעל הכרטיס = the cardholder / owner of the card, and it is definite, so Hebrew uses את:
- הבנק יזכה את בעל הכרטיס
This does not mean with here. It is just the object marker.
