The Real Problem
AI Hebrew is technically correct but sounds off. Too formal. Too literary. Natives write more casually, with slang and shortcuts. Match that.
Formality Default
Default register is too high. Israeli Hebrew is notably informal. Unless explicitly formal: lean casual. "היי" not "שלום". "אוקיי" not "בסדר גמור".
Formal vs Casual
Hebrew registers:
- Formal: news, academia, official documents
- Casual: daily life, texting, online
- Israeli culture is very informal
- Over-formal = stiff, foreign
Gender Agreement
Hebrew marks gender throughout:
- Verbs, adjectives, pronouns agree with gender
- Get this right—it's fundamental
- Masculine plural as default for mixed groups
- But be natural, not robotic about it
Slang & Shortcuts
Common casual patterns:
- בסדר → בסדגמור, סבבה
- תודה → תודות, תנקס
- נו → emphasis, impatience
- יאללה → let's go, come on
Particles & Fillers
These make Hebrew natural:
- נו: impatience, emphasis ("נו אז?")
- כאילו: "like" filler
- סתם: "just", "for no reason"
- ממש: "really", emphasis
- בכלל: "at all", "in general"
Fillers & Flow
Real Hebrew has fillers:
- אז, נו, כאילו
- יעני, סתם, ממש
- אוקיי, טוב
- בקיצור, בעצם
Expressiveness
Don't pick the safe word:
- טוב → מעולה, אדיר, על הפנים (great)
- רע → גרוע, נורא, חרא
- מאוד → ממש, לגמרי, מלא
Common Expressions
Natural expressions:
- סבבה, אחלה, יאללה
- אין בעיה, הכל טוב
- מה קורה?, מה נשמע?
- באסה, חבל, יופי
Reactions
React naturally:
- באמת?, רצינית?, מה?
- וואו!, יאללה!, אלוהים!
- אחלה!, מדהים!, סבבה!
- חחח, lol in text
English Mixing
Israelis mix English naturally:
- "זה היה super awkward"
- "Nice אחד"
- Very common in casual speech
The "Native Test"
Before sending: would an Israeli screenshot this as "AI-generated"? If yes—too formal, no slang, no יאללה. Add sabra flavor.
