Questions & Answers about אני לשה את החימר ומרטיבה אותו.
Because the speaker is feminine singular. In Hebrew present tense, verbs agree with the subject in gender and number.
So with אני:
- a woman would say אני לשה / אני מרטיבה
- a man would say אני לש / אני מרטיב
Unlike English, Hebrew often shows the speaker’s gender in the verb form.
No. אני just means I and does not show gender.
The gender appears in the verbs:
- אני לשה = a female speaker
- אני לש = a male speaker
So you learn the speaker’s gender from לשה and מרטיבה, not from אני.
