Questions & Answers about על אף מועד התשלום הקרוב, ביקשתי תיקון חשבון.
על אף means despite or in spite of.
It is correct Hebrew, but it sounds a bit more formal or written than some everyday alternatives. In casual modern Hebrew, many speakers would more often use למרות.
So:
- על אף מועד התשלום הקרוב = despite the upcoming payment date
- A more conversational version might be למרות מועד התשלום הקרוב
Both are fine, but על אף has a slightly more formal tone.
מועד התשלום is a construct chain (called סמיכות in Hebrew), literally something like the date/time of the payment.
Hebrew often joins two nouns directly instead of using a word like of:
- מועד = date / time / occasion
- התשלום = the payment
So מועד התשלום means the payment date or the date of payment.
Using של is also possible in Hebrew in many contexts, but with expressions like this, the construct chain is usually more natural and more compact.
