Questions & Answers about אפשר לתרום פריטים עונתיים בנקודת הנתינה וההחלפה.
What does אפשר mean here, and why is there no subject like you?
אפשר is an impersonal word that means it is possible, one can, or more naturally in English, you can.
So אפשר לתרום... literally means something like It is possible to donate..., but in natural English we usually say You can donate....
Hebrew often leaves out a subject in this kind of general statement, especially on signs, notices, and instructions.
Why is לתרום used after אפשר?
After אפשר, Hebrew commonly uses an infinitive, just like English often uses to + verb.
- אפשר לתרום = it is possible to donate
- אפשר לקנות = it is possible to buy / you can buy
- אפשר להיכנס = it is possible to enter / you may enter
So לתרום is the infinitive to donate.
What exactly does לתרום mean? Is it specifically to donate?
