Questions & Answers about אנחנו פה ביחד.
A common pronunciation is anachnu po beyachad.
A rough guide:
- אנחנו = a-NAKH-nu
- פה = po
- ביחד = be-YA-khad
Notes:
- The kh sound is like the ch in the German name Bach or Scottish loch.
- In everyday speech, אנחנו is sometimes pronounced a bit more casually, but anachnu is a good form for learners.
In Hebrew, the verb to be is usually not expressed in the present tense.
So where English says:
- We are here together
Hebrew simply says:
- אנחנו פה ביחד
This is very normal. Hebrew often leaves out am / is / are in present-tense sentences.
Compare:
- אני עייף = I am tired
- היא בבית = She is at home
- אנחנו פה ביחד = We are here together
But in the past or future, Hebrew does use forms of to be:
- היינו פה ביחד = We were here together
- נהיה פה ביחד = We will be here together
