Questions & Answers about אני אוהבת כשיש דיאלוג טוב, ולא רק הרבה מוזיקה ורעש.
Why is it אוהבת and not אוהב?
Because אוהבת is the feminine singular form of love / like in the present tense.
- אני אוהבת = I (said by a woman/girl) love / like
- אני אוהב = I (said by a man/boy) love / like
Hebrew present-tense verbs often show gender, even when the subject is אני.
What does כשיש mean here?
כשיש is made of:
- כש־ = when
- יש = there is / there are
So כשיש דיאלוג טוב literally means when there is good dialogue.
In natural English, depending on context, it can also feel like:
- I like it when there’s good dialogue
- I like when there’s good dialogue
Why does Hebrew use יש here instead of a verb like is?
