Questions & Answers about היא כבר יודעת אם הרכבת תבוא בזמן.
Because the subject is היא, meaning she. In Hebrew, verbs change to match the gender and number of the subject.
- היא יודעת = she knows
- הוא יודע = he knows
So יודעת is the correct present-tense form for a feminine singular subject.
כבר means already.
So היא כבר יודעת means she already knows or she knows already.
In this sentence, כבר comes before the verb, which is a very common position:
- היא כבר יודעת
You may also hear slightly different word orders in speech, but this is the most straightforward and natural one.
Because הרכבת is a feminine noun in Hebrew.
Hebrew verbs in the future tense agree with the subject, so:
- הרכבת תבוא = the train will come / arrive
Even though train is not feminine in English, Hebrew nouns have grammatical gender, and רכבת happens to be feminine.
That is why the verb is תבוא and not a masculine form.
