Because the speaker is female.
In Hebrew, verbs in the present tense and many adjectives agree with the gender and number of the subject.
- אני מרגישה = I feel (said by a woman)
- נבוכה = embarrassed / awkward (feminine singular)
- אני מדברת = I speak / I am speaking (said by a woman)
If a man were saying the same sentence, it would be:
אני מרגיש נבוך כשכולם מסתכלים עליי בזמן שאני מדבר.
Because its subject is כולם, meaning everyone.
In Hebrew, כולם is grammatically treated as plural masculine in many contexts, even though in English everyone feels singular. So the verb appears in the masculine plural form:
- כולם מסתכלים = everyone is looking
If the group were explicitly all female, Hebrew could use feminine plural in some contexts, but כולם מסתכלים is the normal general form.
