החישור מחובר לחישוק.

A rough pronunciation is ha-khi-SHOOR me-khu-BAR la-khi-SHOOK.

A few sound notes:

• ח is usually a throaty kh sound, like in German Bach or Scottish loch.
• ש here is sh.
• The stress is typically on the last syllable of חישור, מחובר, and חישוק.

In standard Hebrew, the verb to be is usually omitted in the present tense.

So:

• החישור מחובר לחישוק = The spoke is connected to the rim

But in other tenses, Hebrew does use a form of to be:

• החישור היה מחובר לחישוק = The spoke was connected to the rim
• החישור יהיה מחובר לחישוק = The spoke will be connected to the rim

In this sentence, מחובר functions like an adjective meaning connected / attached, but historically it is also the passive participle of the verb לחבר = to connect / join.

So for a learner, the easiest way to think of it is:

• here it describes the state of החישור
• so it behaves like connected

Because מחובר is not directly modifying the noun here; it is the predicate of the sentence.

Compare:

• החישור מחובר לחישוק = The spoke is connected to the rim
  Here מחובר is the predicate, so it does not take ה־.

• החישור המחובר לחישוק = The spoke that is connected to the rim / the connected spoke
  Here המחובר directly modifies החישור, so it does take ה־.

This is a very common pattern in Hebrew.

ה־ is the Hebrew definite article, equivalent to the.

So:

• חישור = a spoke / spoke
• החישור = the spoke

Hebrew adds ה־ directly to the beginning of the noun instead of using a separate word like English the.

Here ל־ means to, and with מחובר it gives the sense connected to or attached to.

So:

• מחובר לחישוק = connected to the rim

This is just the normal Hebrew pattern with this word. English speakers sometimes expect a different preposition, but in Hebrew ל־ is the natural one here.

Because Hebrew attaches short prepositions directly to the following noun.

So:

• ל־
  • חישוק becomes לחישוק

This is completely normal in Hebrew. The same happens with other common prefixes too, such as ב־ and כ־.

In unpointed modern Hebrew spelling, you often cannot tell from spelling alone.

Both of these can be written לחישוק:

• לְחישוק = to a rim
• לַחישוק = to the rim

When the noun is definite, ל־ combines with ה־:

• ל + ה + חישוק → pronounced לַחישוק

In normal everyday writing, Hebrew usually leaves out the vowel marks, so context tells you which one is meant. Since you already know the sentence’s meaning, here it is to the rim.

It agrees with החישור, which is masculine singular.

So Hebrew uses the masculine singular form:

• מחובר = masculine singular

Other agreement forms would be:

• מחוברת = feminine singular
• מחוברים = masculine plural
• מחוברות = feminine plural

This agreement is very important in Hebrew adjectives and participles.

No. This is a very normal Hebrew word order.

The structure is:

• החישור = subject
• מחובר = predicate adjective/participle
• לחישוק = prepositional phrase

So החישור מחובר לחישוק is the most neutral, straightforward way to say it.

Hebrew can move parts around for emphasis, but this version is the standard one a learner should remember.
