Questions & Answers about הרגשתי כעס.

What tense and person is הרגשתי?

הרגשתי is past tense, first person singular.

It comes from the verb להרגיש = to feel.

The ending ־תי is a very common past-tense ending meaning I did something, so:

• הרגשתי = I felt

Why is there no word for I, like אני?

Because Hebrew often does not need a separate subject pronoun when the verb already shows who the subject is.

In הרגשתי, the ending ־תי already tells you the subject is I.

So:

• הרגשתי כעס = normal, natural
• אני הרגשתי כעס = also possible, but more emphatic, like I felt anger

Is הרגשתי used by both men and women?

Yes. In the first person singular past, Hebrew uses the same verb form for both genders.

So both a male speaker and a female speaker can say:

• הרגשתי כעס

If you changed the sentence to use an adjective, though, gender would show up there:

• הרגשתי כועס = I felt angry, said by a man
• הרגשתי כועסת = I felt angry, said by a woman
