Questions & Answers about היא מבינה עברית, אבל היא לא מדברת אנגלית.
היא means she.
Hebrew verbs usually show person, number, and gender, so היא is not always required, but it is very common and natural to include it, especially in simple statements like this one.
In this sentence, היא appears twice:
- היא מבינה עברית
- אבל היא לא מדברת אנגלית
That gives the sentence a clear she ... but she ... structure.
מבינה is the present tense, feminine singular form of the verb להבין — to understand.
So:
- מבין = understanding / understands, masculine singular
- מבינה = understanding / understands, feminine singular
Because the subject is היא (she), the verb has to be feminine singular too:
- היא מבינה = she understands
