המורה רואה אותנו, ואנחנו שומעים אותה.

Yes. המורה is the teacher:

• ה־ = the
• מורה = teacher

The noun מורה can refer to either a male teacher or a female teacher. In this sentence, we know the teacher is female because later the sentence says אותה = her.

So although המורה itself can be either gender, the rest of the sentence tells us which one is meant here.

In unpointed Hebrew, רואה can represent both:

• masculine singular: ro'eh = sees
• feminine singular: ro'ah = sees

The spelling is the same, but the pronunciation changes.

Since the subject here is a female teacher, this should be understood as the feminine form, pronounced ro'ah. Hebrew often leaves short vowels unwritten, so native speakers rely on context to know which form is intended.

אותנו means us as a direct object, as in sees us.

Hebrew has a special set of direct-object pronoun forms:

• אותי = me
• אותך = you
• אותו = him
• אותה = her
• אותנו = us
• etc.

So in Hebrew, you do not say something like רואה את אנחנו for sees us. Instead, you use the built-in object pronoun אותנו.

Historically, these forms are connected to את, the direct object marker, which is why they begin with או/את.

Because אותה is the feminine singular direct-object pronoun: her.

In this sentence:

• אנחנו שומעים אותה = we hear her

This tells us the person being heard is female. Since the only person already mentioned is the teacher, it shows that the teacher is female.

A useful comparison:

• אותו = him
• אותה = her

Sometimes Hebrew can leave out subject pronouns, but in the present tense they are often needed for clarity.

That is because present-tense verb forms in Hebrew do not show person clearly. For example, שומעים tells you plural and usually masculine/mixed gender, but not by itself whether it means:

• we hear
• you (plural) hear
• they hear

So אנחנו is included to make it clear that the subject is we.

שומעים is the present-tense plural form used for a masculine or mixed-gender group.

Since the subject is אנחנו = we, the verb must agree in number and gender:

• אני שומע / שומעת = I hear
• אנחנו שומעים = we hear (masculine or mixed group)
• אנחנו שומעות = we hear (all-female group)

So שומעים suggests that the speakers are either:

• a group of males, or
• a mixed group

If the speakers were all female, the sentence would be ואנחנו שומעות אותה.

The ו is the conjunction and.

So:

• ואנחנו = and we

In Hebrew, this ו־ is attached directly to the next word rather than written separately.

Its pronunciation can change depending on the following sound. Here it is commonly pronounced something like va-anachnu.

Because Hebrew usually uses special object-pronoun forms instead of combining several separate words.

In English, we simply say:

• see us
• hear her

In Hebrew, the direct-object pronouns are already packaged into single words:

• אותנו = us
• אותה = her

So these are not random vocabulary items; they are part of a whole pronoun system used for direct objects.

Yes. This is very normal Modern Hebrew word order.

The sentence is basically:

• המורה רואה אותנו
• ואנחנו שומעים אותה

That is:

• subject + verb + object

Modern Hebrew often uses SVO order, especially in straightforward statements like this one.

A natural pronunciation would be:

ha-moreh ro'ah otanu, va-anachnu shom'im otah.

A few notes:

• המורה = ha-moreh
• רואה here is understood as feminine ro'ah
• אותנו = otanu
• ואנחנו = va-anachnu
• שומעים = shom'im
• אותה = otah

Because the Hebrew is unpointed, pronunciation is something you often learn from context and experience.

Not as written, if אותה refers back to the teacher.

That is because אותה means her, so the second clause tells us the teacher is female:

• the teacher sees us, and we hear her

If the teacher were male, the second clause would use אותו:

• המורה רואה אותנו, ואנחנו שומעים אותו
• The teacher sees us, and we hear him

So the object pronoun is what settles the teacher’s gender here.
