Mah Zeh?
Hebrew words. Two Options. Can you pick out the correct one?
Start
Mah Zeh?
Round 1
What is the Hebrew name of this delicious Rosh Hashanah treat?
Tapuach B'Dvashתפוח בדבש
Matok HaShanah מתוק השנה
🎉
Congratulations!
In Hebrew, Tapuach means apple, and Dvash means honey. Yummm!
Next Question
Not quite!
Matok Hashanah, meaning "the sweet of the year" would be a great name - but it's not the correct word in Hebrew!
Try again!
Mah Zeh?
Round 2
On Rosh Hashanah, we eat a pomegranate so we can have as many blessings as the seeds of this fruit. Which of these means pomegranate in Hebrew?
Rimon רימון
Limon לימון
🎉
Congratulations!
Fun fact: Rimon is also the word used for the decorations at the top of a Torah Scroll.
Next Question
Not quite!
That's a tricky question! Though only one letter seperates them, Limon means lemon. A little sour - and a lot fewer seeds.
Try again!
Mah Zeh?
Round 3
On Rosh Hashanah, we eat challah shaped like a circle. What is the Hebrew word for "circle"?
Ribua ריבוע
Eee-Gul עיגול
🎉
Congratulations!
The circular challah reminds us of the circle of the year!
Next Question
Not quite!
Ribua is Hebrew for "square". Did you notice it sounds like "arba" (four)?

Mah Zeh?
Round 4
On Yom Kippur, we do T'Shuvah, which means "to go back" or "return". We think of things we should have done diffrently. Sometimes, we say "I'm sorry". How do you say that in Hebrew?
Slicha סליחה
Bevakasha בבקשה
🎉
Congratulations!
You can also say "Ani Mitztaer" or "Ani Mitztaeret"
Next Question
Not quite!
Bevakasha is Hebrew for please AND you're welcome. Such a versitile word!
Try again!
Mah Zeh?
Round 5
The shofar is made from the horn of a ram. What is the Hebrew word for ram?
Ra'am רעם
Re'em ראם
🎉
Congratulations!
Ram - Re'em. Kind of makes sense, doesn't it?

Ra'am, although spelled very similarly to Re'em, is Hebrew for "thunder".

Thank you for playing!
