Hebrew is more than just a language. It's a vibrant and effusive expression of culture, history, and identities. Bituyim (ביטויים), Hebrew slang/expressions, can deepen our connection to the people of Israel. By comparing slang and literal meanings, we also further connect to Eliezer Ben-Yehuda and his work to revitalize the Hebrew language.
