The University's Department of Oriental Studies will be offering an evening course in Modern Hebrew as from October 9.
The department has been offering courses in a number of Oriental languages for the past 12 years. They included Arabic, Classical Hebrew, Aramaic, and Chinese.
The new course will consist of one weekly session every Tuesday from 5 till 7 p.m at the University campus. The course will come to an end in May 2013.
The course will introduce students to basic notions of Israeli Hebrew, with particular emphasis on the functional, especially conversational, aspects, of this language. Applicants need not have any previous knowledge of Modern Hebrew, and no prerequisites are needed. Those interested are requested to submit their application by September 24. Application forms are available at:
