Questions & Answers about היא נתנה לי מבט קצר.
נתנה is the past tense, third-person feminine singular form of the verb לתת (to give).
So:
- הוא נתן = he gave
- היא נתנה = she gave
In this sentence, it matches היא because the subject is feminine singular.
Yes. In Hebrew, the verb form already tells you the person, number, and in the past tense also the gender. So נתנה by itself can already mean she gave.
That means:
- נתנה לי מבט קצר is a complete sentence.
- היא נתנה לי מבט קצר is also correct.
Including היא can make the sentence clearer, more explicit, or slightly more emphatic.
