אני מצפה ממנה לתשובה ברורה עד מחר.

Because Hebrew often uses fixed prepositions with certain verbs. With לצפות, you can say:

• לצפות ל־... = to expect / await something
• לצפות ממישהו ל־... = to expect something from someone

So:

• ממנה = from her
• לתשובה = for an answer

Together, מצפה ממנה לתשובה means expects an answer from her.

Because the verb לצפות normally takes the preposition ל־ before the thing being expected. So Hebrew says something closer to expect for an answer rather than simply expect an answer.

Also, Hebrew prepositions are usually attached directly to the following word, so ל־ + תשובה becomes לתשובה.

In Hebrew, adjectives usually come after the noun they describe. So:

• תשובה ברורה = a clear answer

This is the normal Hebrew order, unlike English, where adjectives usually come before the noun.

Because adjectives in Hebrew must agree with the noun in gender and number. תשובה is a feminine singular noun, so the adjective must also be feminine singular:

• masculine singular: ברור = clear
• feminine singular: ברורה = clear

So תשובה ברורה is a correct agreement pair.

There are two reasons:

1. תשובה is not a direct object here; it comes after the preposition ל־.
2. את is only used before a definite direct object.

So in this sentence, את would not be used.

It means a clear answer. The phrase is indefinite.

A useful clue is the adjective: if the phrase were definite, the adjective would also need ה־:

• תשובה ברורה = a clear answer
• התשובה הברורה = the clear answer

Because we have ברורה and not הברורה, the phrase is understood as indefinite.
