מצאנו מקום ביציע.

A common pronunciation is roughly matzanu makom ba-yatzia if the meaning is in the stands / in the grandstand.

A few helpful pronunciation notes:

• צ sounds like ts in cats
• מקום is makom
• יציע is yatzia

One important detail: in unpointed Hebrew, ביציע can also be read be-yatzia. The exact reading depends on context and on whether the noun is understood as definite.

מצאנו is the past tense, first person plural form of the verb למצוא, meaning to find.

So:

• מצאנו = we found

It comes from the root מ-צ-א, which is the root connected with finding.

The ending -נו often marks we in past-tense verbs.

For comparison:

• מצאתי = I found
• מצאת = you found
• מצא = he found
• מצאו = they found

Because את is used before a definite direct object, and מקום here is indefinite.

So:

• מצאנו מקום = we found a place / some place
• מצאנו את המקום = we found the place

This is a very common point for English speakers, because English does not have a special marker like את.

Hebrew does not have an indefinite article like English a / an.

So a bare noun like מקום can mean:

• a place
• some place
• room / space, depending on context

Definiteness is usually shown with ה־:

• מקום = a place
• המקום = the place

Literally, מקום means place. But in many real-life situations it can also mean:

• spot
• space
• room
• sometimes effectively seat

So in a stadium or theater context, מצאנו מקום often means we found a place to sit or we found seats / a spot.

If someone wanted to be more specifically literal about an individual seat, they might use מושב, but מקום is very natural and common.

יציע usually refers to a spectator seating area such as:

• stands
• bleachers
• grandstand
• sometimes gallery or upper seating section, depending on context

A useful thing to know is that Hebrew may use a singular noun where English naturally uses a plural expression.

So ביציע may be translated naturally as:

• in the stands
• in the bleachers

even though יציע itself is singular in form.

Because ב־ is an inseparable preposition in Hebrew. It attaches directly to the following word.

Here:

• ב־ = in / at
• יציע = stands / grandstand / seating section

So:

• ביציע = in the stands / in the grandstand

A slightly tricky point: in unpointed Hebrew, ביציע can represent either:

• be-yatzia = in a stand / in stands
• ba-yatzia = in the stand / in the stands

So the spelling alone does not always show whether the noun is definite; context usually tells you.

Yes. This is a very natural Hebrew sentence.

The order here is:

• מצאנו = verb
• מקום = object
• ביציע = prepositional phrase

So literally it is:

• found-we a place in-the-stands

Hebrew often allows flexible word order, but this version sounds very normal.

Other orders are possible, with different emphasis:

• ביציע מצאנו מקום = emphasizes in the stands
• מקום ביציע מצאנו = much less neutral, more marked

So the original sentence is a good standard pattern to learn from.
