הטכנאית העריכה את המחיר.

A common approximation is:

ha-tekh-na-IT he-e-RI-kha et ha-me-KHIR

A few pronunciation notes:

• ח in המחיר is the throaty kh sound, like the ch in German Bach or Scottish loch.
• טכנאית is feminine and is stressed at the end: ...-IT.
• את here is pronounced et.

הטכנאית is the female technician.

Why -ית?

• The masculine form is usually טכנאי = technician.
• The feminine form is טכנאית.

This -ית ending is common in some profession nouns. So:

• טכנאי = male technician
• טכנאית = female technician

The ה at the beginning means the, so:

• טכנאית = a female technician
• הטכנאית = the female technician

Because the subject, הטכנאית, is feminine singular.

In the past tense, Hebrew verbs agree with the subject in gender and number. So the verb changes depending on who did the action.

Here:

• הטכנאית = feminine singular
• so the verb is העריכה = feminine singular past

Compare:

• הטכנאי העריך את המחיר = the male technician estimated the price
• הטכנאית העריכה את המחיר = the female technician estimated the price

The dictionary form is להעריך.

That is the infinitive, meaning something like to estimate, to evaluate, or sometimes to appreciate, depending on context.

In this sentence, with המחיר as the object, the natural meaning is estimated the price.

So:

• להעריך = to estimate / to evaluate
• העריכה = she estimated / she evaluated

את is the direct object marker.

Hebrew uses את before a definite direct object. It usually does not have a separate English translation, but it marks the noun that receives the action.

So in:

• הטכנאית העריכה את המחיר

the word את tells you that המחיר is the thing being estimated.

A very literal gloss would be:

• the technician estimated [DO marker] the price

English does not need this marker, but Hebrew often does.

No. This is a very common confusion.

Hebrew has:

• אֶת = the direct object marker, pronounced et
• אַתְּ = you (feminine singular), pronounced at

They are written almost the same without vowel marks, but they are different words.

In your sentence, את is definitely the direct object marker, because it comes before המחיר.

The ה is the Hebrew definite article, meaning the.

So:

• מחיר = price
• המחיר = the price

This also explains why את appears before it: המחיר is definite, so Hebrew uses the direct object marker את.

The basic word order here is:

Subject + Verb + Object

So:

• הטכנאית = subject
• העריכה = verb
• את המחיר = object

This is very similar to normal English word order:

• The technician estimated the price.

Hebrew can sometimes vary word order for emphasis or style, but this sentence uses a very standard, neutral order.

Yes. The verb להעריך can have more than one meaning depending on context.

Common meanings include:

• to estimate
• to evaluate
• to appreciate

For example:

• היא העריכה את העבודה שלך could mean She appreciated your work or She evaluated your work, depending on context.

But with המחיר (the price), the meaning is most naturally estimated or evaluated.

In standard Hebrew, no—not if the direct object is definite.

Since המחיר means the price, it is definite, so את should be used:

• הטכנאית העריכה את המחיר

If the object were indefinite, את would usually not appear:

• הטכנאית העריכה מחיר would be structurally possible, but by itself it sounds less natural and less complete in many contexts.

So for this sentence as written, את is the expected form.

The noun and the verb would change to match the new subject.

Examples:

• הטכנאי העריך את המחיר.
  The male technician estimated the price.

• הטכנאיות העריכו את המחיר.
  The female technicians estimated the price.

• הטכנאים העריכו את המחיר.
  The male technicians / the technicians estimated the price.

So the verb must match the subject in gender and number.

Hebrew often can drop subject pronouns, because the verb already shows person, number, and sometimes gender. But in this sentence, הטכנאית is not just a pronoun like she—it is the full noun the technician.

If you want to say specifically the technician, you keep it:

• הטכנאית העריכה את המחיר.

If the subject were already understood from context, Hebrew could use just the verb:

• העריכה את המחיר. = She estimated the price.

So you do not have to include a subject every time, but if you want to identify who did the action, you normally do.
