Conversational Hebrew:
A Working Knowledge of the Language 

It’s not like you have to learn every single word in the dictionary before you can have a conversation. Most people would not even think to make that an expectation even in their primary language, and it need not be any different when you are learning another language. Neither is it necessary to learn all the rules of grammar to be fluent at a conversational level. 

With that being said, it is at least necessary to be able to recognize what certain phrases mean. Then you need to know how to respond to them. There is no getting around that if you want to understand what the other person is saying to you and if you want to be able to be able to express yourself confidently.

 

What’s it going to take?

So what does it take to at least acquire a conversational knowledge of the Hebrew language? After all, children can quickly learn how to hold intelligent conversations before they know how to read or write or even spell a word. In fact, children actually acquire a working knowledge of their primary well before the first day of school.

So if a preschool child can be conversational (i.e., having the ability to speak and listen and then respond with understanding), then we can reasonably reduce what is necessary to acquire a conversational knowledge of any language to hearing that language and, ideally, with the ability to connect what they are hearing to something meaningful. 

A preschool child will not acquire an adult’s vocabulary until later in their development, and yet there will be certain words and phrases that they will need to use with great frequency.
