אני רוצה לתלות את המעיל על קולב ליד הדלת, אבל אין שם מקום.

אני רוצה means I want.

In Hebrew, the verb form here agrees with the speaker, but in the present tense Hebrew uses forms that look like adjectives/participles. With אני, you do not use a special separate word meaning want the way English does.

A useful point:

• אני רוצה = I want
• If a man is speaking, it is pronounced ani rotze
• If a woman is speaking, it is pronounced ani rotza

So the spelling is the same, but the pronunciation changes.

Because Hebrew often uses רוצה + infinitive to say want to do something.

So:

• רוצה = want
• לתלות = to hang

Together:

• אני רוצה לתלות = I want to hang

This is very similar to English want to hang.

לתלות means to hang or to suspend something.

In this sentence, it means hanging the coat on a hanger.

Examples:

• לתלות תמונה = to hang a picture
• לתלות כביסה = to hang laundry
• לתלות את המעיל = to hang the coat

Its dictionary form is the infinitive: לתלות.

את is the direct object marker. It appears before a definite direct object.

Here:

• המעיל = the coat
• so Hebrew uses את before it: את המעיל

It does not have a direct English translation. You usually do not translate it as a separate word.

Compare:

• אני לובש מעיל = I am wearing a coat
• אני לובש את המעיל = I am wearing the coat

So את helps mark that the coat is the specific object of the verb.

Because ה־ is the Hebrew definite article, meaning the.

So:

• מעיל = a coat / coat
• המעיל = the coat

Since the sentence refers to a specific coat, Hebrew uses המעיל.

Because קולב here is indefinite: a hanger, not the hanger.

So:

• על קולב = on a hanger
• על הקולב = on the hanger

If the speaker meant a specific known hanger, they would probably say על הקולב. As written, it sounds more like on a hanger in general.

על usually means on or onto, and with a hanger it is the natural choice in Hebrew.

So:

• לתלות את המעיל על קולב = to hang the coat on a hanger

This matches English fairly closely. Hebrew is imagining the coat as being placed on the hanger.

ליד means next to, by, or near.

So:

• ליד הדלת = by the door / next to the door

And:

• הדלת = the door

So literally:

• ליד הדלת = next to the door

Hebrew commonly uses:

• יש = there is / there are
• אין = there is not / there are not

So:

• יש שם מקום = There is room there
• אין שם מקום = There is no room there

This is one of the most basic and important Hebrew patterns.

Literally, מקום often means place, but in this sentence it means room / space.

So:

• אין שם מקום = There’s no room there or There’s no space there

That is a very natural use of מקום in Hebrew.

Here שם means there.

So:

• אין שם מקום = There is no room there

Be careful, because שם can also mean name in other contexts.

For example:

• מה השם שלך? = What is your name?
• הספר שם = The book is there

So context tells you which meaning is intended.

אבל means but, and it connects the two parts of the sentence:

• אני רוצה לתלות את המעיל על קולב ליד הדלת
• אבל אין שם מקום

This is very similar to English word order:

• I want to hang the coat on a hanger by the door, but there is no room there.

So אבל simply introduces the contrast.

Yes, it is natural and understandable Hebrew.

It means something like:

• I want to hang the coat on a hanger by the door, but there isn’t any room there.

A few notes:

• על קולב sounds like on a hanger
• ליד הדלת clearly means by the door
• אין שם מקום is a very common natural way to say there’s no space there

So this is a good everyday sentence for learning useful vocabulary and structure.

The spelling is the same, but the pronunciation changes:

• male speaker: ani rotze
• female speaker: ani rotza

This is because Hebrew present-tense forms reflect gender, even with אני.

The rest of the sentence stays the same:

• אני רוצה לתלות את המעיל...

Only the pronunciation of רוצה changes depending on the speaker.
